You need a better cpu-cooler like noctua nh-d14 or silver arrow.
What case do you have?

Thermaltake Bach VX

 

[ruthless_villain]

buy a h100 or a silver arrow / dh14

 

[castleite]

maaaaan that case is ugly no offence im guessing you got it a while ago when the case market wasnt too good, also d14 is th way to go with air cooling expect nothing less than awesome with it

 

[Josh Weston]

Noctua NH-D14, Thermalright Silver Arrow, Corsair H100, NZXT Havik 140, be quiet! Dark Rock PRO 2.
Can't think of anything else, but I am tired =[

 

[VengeanceUK]

corsair h80 or a70 as well as the above suggestions

 

[moode4u]

thanks folks .
but im not sure Noctua NH-D14 OR Corsair H100

 

[yassarikhan786]

Do you mean you're not sure the NH-D14 or Corsair H100 would fit in your case? I'm not sure if the case has mounts for two 120mm fans at the top, but it should be good for a NH-D14 or anyone of the other air coolers mentioned.

thanks for the replay mate.
well the H100 will not fit in the thermaltake bach x . i need a new case for that.
so i believe the NH-D14 sound good, im going for it

hehe , back then it was a bad @s case ^_^ .
but with all the Corsair and Antec now it is ridiculous

 

[CPMFW]

the nh-d14 is a good choice!

 

[garih]

good choice

 

[yassarikhan786]

I have the Noctua myself and it is indeed very good

 

[wotevajjjj]

Alpenfohn K2 is also really good, maybe getting some better tim could also help

what is ur cpu temps mate?

 

[yassarikhan786]

My temps are around 65 C, but I'm only at 4.0GHz. I'm going to re-mount the cooler as the temps seem too high for a 4.0Ghz OC.

that is high, depending on the ambient. how much vcore and LLC is cranked into the OC?
on a 25-28° ambient and minimal vcore 1.175-1.2v it should be 60°ish or less. 65° sounds close
to 1.25-1.275v. and possibly alot of VDROOP control. on your load testing are
you seeing alot of added voltage over your "preset" CPU voltage, this is a sandly bridge
over-clock?

[yassarikhan786]

Well it is about 28 C in my home office/gaming room and the window cannot be opened. I'm only pushing 1.18v through it, but I haven't looked at the settings in ages. I'll try changing a few things over the weekend and see if I can lower the temps. I'm quite sure the cooler is mounted properly and I think it is that high because of the ambient temps.

28c in the UK... your heating bills must be huge
