Maximum cooling or low noise levels?

sort of a balance i guess. hoping to overlclock to around 4.5ghz
Answer #3
Put this on it’s low fan setting and it should be good.
Probably make too much noise on high setting.

There are plenty other coolers, trying to keep it over £20 but as close to £20 as possible then that one is a good choice.

It should come with some basic thermal paste.
If you want better stuff then you ill need to buy it separate.
It’s not essential though and you will probably be happy as is.

It should come with some basic thermal paste. Corsair uses Shin-Etsu X23. Pretty good really.

Answer #13
No worries, seen the other thread earlier looked ok other than only having a single stick of ram.
That’s not that big a deal though.
