Help to chose new budget watercooling

Activeduke · Sep 3, 2011

So I finally got tired of my terrible stock cooler for my Phenom 1055t..

I found these 3 watercoolers and cant decide which one to buy:

CoolIT VANTAGE A.L.C. cpu cooler
Corsair H60 Hydro Series
Antec Kuhler H2O 620

Thanks!

Ok thanks

But looks like the termal paste wont cover the whole cpu. Does this have anything to say?

It's either the Antec or the Corsair. The 620 is (very) slightly better than the H60, but the H60 is easier to setup.

yep i agree better take h60
but dont forget to improve your case airflow

The 120mm fan I already have, should I put that in the front of the case or put it on the radiator?
I think I'll go for the Antec, looks like it has the best noise, perfomance, price ratio

if it could put it both
on the radiator to eliminate processor heat and the front to give your hardware (like RAM, mosfet etc) more airflow :toast:

Ok, bought the Corsair H80 instead

cant fit it properly in my case so im getting an Antec 900 from a buddy.
Very happy with it so far, very quiet and 29c idle with small OC.
The fans are extremely noisy at startup, but i can live with that :toast:
