Overclocking i5-750 series

Featured Replies

Hi all,I am not a computer techie, in fact, I'm pretty dumb when it comes to computers, but I was wondering if someone like me can install a cooling system on my CPU or if I have to pay someone $50 an hour for labour to do it.If I can do this myself, what is the easiest and cost effective cooling system I can purchase for my i5? I'd like to bump it up from 3.3 ghz to 4.0. Thanks!

G'day mate,Luckily for us, there are quite a few good models of CPU cooling kits available these days. Personally, I use CoolIT Systems' Domino A.L.C. - A pre-assembled liquid cooling kit. It was reasonably easy to install and it cools my CPU adequately for my OC needs. Although, if I were to buy a new one now, I'd propbaby go for one of their newer models. Corsair also have a model or two that have had some good reviews.Most good models will suit your needs, but do a little homework before you buy. (Maybe you would be better off with a "traditional" aftermarket fan based air-cooling system, like those from Noctua.) Just don't buy the most expensive - they rarely perform in proportion to their price.Cheers,
