Aftermarket cooler for a GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3

[cowfodder]

Corsair H70 works great for me. In Mint Debian, I can compile code with the j3 (all four cores) option and stay under 55c. I idle at around 30c. Things are a bit tight, but the case I have isn't really designed with a cooler like that in mind.

Corsair H100 is a good cooler.

I have the same board and processor, and I use this heat-sink:

I am over-clocked to 4.0GHz and I keep steady temps all the time. I never leave above 36c while doing routine thinks, and after 30 minutes of Prime 95 i wasn't past 60c.

I cheeped out on this heat-sink, but it has proven to be very valuable.

I'm using a Zalman Performa on an i5 currently overclocked to 4.6ghz and running right around 30?C under normal use.

I'm also using the Vengeance LP ram and it just clears the fan on the heat sink.

Corsair H100. Probably the best pre-filled water-cooling system out there and no probs with memory clearance.

Also very clean install and very stable at 4.5Ghz.
