I will be buying a Q6600 in July 22 and I will be oc as well but I have never bought a aftermarket cooler which one you guys recommend for the price/performance ratio?

 

[veg1992]

arctic freezer pro7 or thermalright extreme

Would the Freezer 7 Pro, be enough to cool the Q6600, at good temps?....knowing that quads, pump out quite a lot of heat, when overclocked.

So Freezer 7 Pro is not enough for the Q6600??

What do you recommend for the price/performance ratio?

Thnx in advance

I would recommend the Tuniq, even though it's pricier, than the Freezer 7 Pro, for the quad.

Price/performance? Scythe Ninja.. Or Scythe mine over the Freezer 7.

trust me i got the q6600 and a tuniq 35 idle goes up to 37 if the room is hot.


tuniq rules!!!!
