Radiators

[AxJaWz]

I was just wondering what would be sufficient to cool an Intel core i5 760 quad core @ 3.8Ghz. I mean like what size and how many.

I have a HAF 932 Advanced btw.

I am prepared to do modding if needed.

Thanks!

if all ur doing is cpu at that oc a 240mm rad will be very adequate and ya can prolly get by with the thinner one. I'm contemplating a wc change and looking at a 240mm rad for my sniper case but looking at the 60mm variety as I wanna push it past my current 5.3GHz

Yeah but im using an A70 so im limited from higher overclocks. If i get watercooling I will be clocking it higher and I will probably get a new CPU next year anyway. How about a 240mm on top and a 140mm on the back?

that can be done or just get ya a 240mm 60mm thick with a good pump and block and fans you should be fine.

Yeah but I don't want a chunky rad on the top which sticks right down into the case with fans on it. I will get the measuring tape out and check it out. Thanks for the advice!

XSPC RS240 for a 30mm one or the XSPC RX240 for a 60mm one, both are good rads. The HardwareLabs Black Ice SR1 240 is also a really good rad, it's also designed to be used with low RPM fans so useful if you want to go for silence.
