13900K Cooler Recommendations

Featured Replies

Hello,

My 13900K is running very hot and I’m looking for any cooler recommendations. I’m running a Corsair H60x ELITE at the moment (single fan), and understandably, it’s not doing an awful lot.

Is Arctic 360 AIO the way to go?

Thanks,

Mike

 

 

I run the Arctic Liquid Freezer II 360 with my 13900K and it does a great job keeping the temps down. I only run Flight Sim on this build so I’m not benchmarking resulting in crazy temps.

I wouldn't recommend a cooler with anything less than a 360mm x 120mm radiator.

Noctua d15 is the best cooler 

You can also considers DeepCool, their 6 to7 pipes with dual fans are pretty good.

Match it with some silent fans, it wont be very noisy.

you might want to explore 360mm water cooling if you wanted to stay with AIO with push and pull configuration

 

Merry X'mas!

You could also try undervolting the cpu to help with the excess heat. It's quite amazing the way temps plummet (ref. HWiNFO64).
