So I came home from a LAN yesterday and when I turned on my PC I clearly noticed that I had turned up a fan.
I've been playing with the idea before, but I really wanna try silencing my build, so here's what I want to try:
I've got a fan blowing in right around the CPU cooler area, so I was thinking passive cooling should be possible. CPU doesn't get very hot (haven't seen it anywhere near 60's) with the Scythe Shuriken, but the fan on the Shuriken makes a buzzy noise.
Can someone recommend me a passive heatsink which, with the help of a small bit of intake airflow, can cool my proccy?
TDP on the proc is 95W according to specs, but I feel it's comparable to my old E6750, which had an (Intel) TDP spec of 65W, so let's estimate it on 75W on Intel scale.
