Which HeatSink will fit Antec Sonata iii
Hi, I have following hardware.. 1. Antec Sonata iii case 2. Abit-Pro IP35 3. Intel E8400 4. two HDD 1TB and 500GB 5. 8GB RAM 6. H2600 GPU (some low profile graphics card) I am running this as a converter for my video files stored on NAS to my PS3. When this converter runs it takes 70-95% of CPU and the temperature goes above 75 C. I have stock CPU fan with one leg not properly installed. I need some good CPU heatsink with fan which can fit my case. Please suggest.. |

This is currently $10 after rebates...
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Pro...sair%20a50 I got the similar Cooler Master Hyper 212 + and it fit in my Antec case which is a bit narrower than yours even, so a tower style cooler should fit/work for you. |

They're pretty comparable - the only difference is the 212+ can support a 2nd fan, and the EVO performs better than the 212+. But you shouldn't need to worry about it unless you wanted the maximum overclocking ability on your CPU.
Note - only have a single fan on mine, and it keeps it way cooler than the Intel provided heatsink. Last edited by neteng101; 09-18-2012 at 08:08 AM.. |
