Hey all,

Which CPU cooler would you recommend to use in a push&pull configuration with 2 Noctua fans (NF-P12)?
I do plan to overclock; I don't know how extreme, but, I indeed plan to. :p

I know they don't excel CFM-wise, but after reading tons of reviews, I like them the best! :D
Having said that, I know they won't perform well with dense-fins cooler, am I right?

Any personal experience?

CPU: E8400 || Mobo: GA-EP43-DS3L || Case: Antec 300

Cheers! :)
 
I'd too go for Noctua's own heat-sinks, but for some strange reason, no store stocks them here. I've contacted many of them and was answered that their heat-sinks are technologocially "obsolete". :confused:

@gt_junkie:

Can you tell what the temps with Scythe Ninja were like?

Also, if I were to take TRUE, which fans would you recommend, that will be as close as possible to Noctua's silence?

And: What about Thermalright HR-01 Plus? I've read it's very good with low-airflow.

Whoops, thought I pressed Edit and not reply.

I think I'll go for Xigmatek'sHDT-S1283. It gets great reviews.

What do you all think?
