Hi,
I have a 4670K that I am over clocking to a modest 4.2, I am currently using a Be Quiet! Shadow Rock 2 air cooler with a single fan in a Nanoxia Deep Silence case.
A couple of months back I RMA'd a Antec Kuhler 620, and Antec have finally shipped me a new replacement back, the latest V4 version.
Acoustics are important, but equally so is cooling, my Be Quiet! Shadow Rock 2 is at it's thermal limit, and 4.3 under any form of stress test fails (100+ easily - partly due to the voltage I need to put the CPU at to make it stable).
Is the Antec a significantly better cooler, and would the benefits be worth the hassle of switching them around?
Thanks,
Chris.
