What's the point in water cooling systems when they can leak and destroy everything

What's the point in water cooling systems when they can leak and destroy everything.

>ftw Just bought noctua nh d15

Hope it will be good for my 4770K just need 1.3v for 4.7ghz

Water cooling has its uses if you are doing extreme overclocking

Also some people get it for the looks, which is stupid, but lots of stupid people out there

Leaking is not a problem with most AIOs, but the problem is they are noisy as fuck compared to good air coolers

>they are noisy as fuck compared to good air coolers
Really? I thought that water cooling is supposed to be silent.

>water

They aren't, the pump noise makes them much worse.

There's no water in "watercooling kits" you tardos.

Nice buy. Noctua is probably the best when it comes to air cooling

Lower the pump speed then.
A D5 Vario has more than enough flow to move through my RX360+RX480+2x GTX680 EKWB blocks on lowest possible speed.

noctua is not the best air cooling solution anymore, just by the way should have done your research

>tfw noctua actually snaps your mobo

What's better than an NH-D15?

C2H4O + H2O → HO–CH2CH2–OH

>better compability across motherboars, memory sticks, cases and so on.
>looks better
>doesn't strain your mobo

>What's the point in water cooling systems when they can leak and destroy everything.

For 90% percent of computer users it's pointless and possibly counterproductive just like having multiple video cards, but it makes your pc look like a science experiment and a car engine so dumb brains with a lot of money think they need it to feel good about themselves.

not going to spoonfeed you when you already wasted your money protip check logical

That's what the backplate is for you dummy.

Mostly just looks

Looks like you're retarded, there's nothing better than the NH-D15 on logical

Been running an i7 2700K overclocked at 4.5GHz with a Noctua NH D15 for 4+ years

You're the real retard for replying to him

Thanks for sharing

They are called closed loop coolers. CLC

The falcon is a paid shill.

Autism is one hell of a disease

Hyper 212

what will you rate the Noctua NH D15?

That's cheaper, not better

price/performance

To me it's about having good temps with a cooling system that's quieter than ambient

This especially becomes nice when the GPU is added to the loop

But I fully acknowledge that it's super hobby level stuff and will never be cost effective

Hyper 212 has been superseded by the Cryorig H7. Same price, shorter, quieter, better cooling.

>Not getting the Scythe Kotetsu

maybe next time

cryorig is obviously far superior to noctua its within one celsius and is about 40$ cheaper, any pajeet who thinks otherwise please poo in loo

>super hobby level stuff

Using it for your home PC is a gimmick. Chillers are about as common as blowers in the industry though.

Your dad's condom leaked and destroyed everything.

Not according to the benchmarks I've seen

You shouldn't go after paid Benchmarks, check forums for real world usage.

I don't trust some random guy posting on forums, I trust real reviewers

Best heatsink I have ever used.Never had any problems with it.

I think I've got the same cooler in my system. It works great and looks alright but they are fucking huge and makes getting to the RAM slots difficult. Am thinking of going for a smaller one or something when the times comes to changing the CPU or mobo

Noctua has more straightforward mounting kits and free kits for future builds, as well as a very long term warranty they actually honor no questions asked instead of the usual trying to wriggle themselves out for asinine reasons as usual in most other brands. Most of the times you don't even have to send the faulty unit back, just decomission it and they will send you the replacement right away.

Yeah, they're expensive as fuck but you get what you pay for, not just in product quality but in the ammount of bundled accesories and support.

Protip: their cheap, no accesories included fans are barely an euro or two more expensive than other similar brands.

Anything made well won't leak and nothing premade can beat the Kraken X62 temps and dB as a water or air cooler

Just looked it up, it's basically equal to the NH-D15, except it costs twice as much, and has all the limitations of any water cooler.

I said the best, not 2'C hotter than the best while covering half of the motherboard and rig with a massive shit coloured plastic & aluminium block
Also, real gaming loads will make internal CPU exhaust setups up to another 5'C less reliable that a decent cold air intake through a liquid rad, as the GPU and PSU are heating the air going into the CPU block

Meanwhile, the VRMs and RAM are being cooked.

heat pipes technically are water cooling but so much better than pumped liquids.

^autism

Water cooling can be effective and nice hobby thing for those that want to

Sure it was troll but some guy years ago said he dug hole in ground outside window w. 55 gallon drum in it w. The liquid and hoses going to it

>NZXT Kraken
>good
>better than the legendary NH-D15
There's a reason why no company has made anything better than it. Air cooling will always be superior to water cooling, especially when you factor in pump noise.

To be fair, when I had an issue with a year old cryorig fan starting to buzz they sent me out a new one no cost no questions. I use a noctua now but no complaints at all about cryorig's support.

Nice to know that. It's a shame their stuff is as expensive as Noctua in Europe, if not more.

all in ones are noisy as fuck, a good silent pump that literally is silent to the human ear when its in the case costs around the same price as an all in one cooler does on its own.

Yeah it seems they only really stock the bottom tier and top tier in EU, none of the better value mid range is easy to find.

the cryorig is twice the price of a 212, hell, 212's can be found for sub 20$ if you look hard enough, just on newegg im looking at the difference of 20$ to 40$

So I can see my RGB RAM

...

why are the colors like that
literally the "shit hits the fan" desgn

It's the best marketing idea ever. Everytime anybody shares a pic online everybody automatically know it's a Noctua fan while the rest are more often than not completely unrecognisable or plain black.

BeQuiet! DarkRock 3 or something like that

huh that's pretty clever

they both get BTFO by the Deepcool Gammaxx 400

NHD15 too intimidating
Buy NH U12 instead

212 evo is 35 bucks on newegg.

Yea, you know in gameing people say that batman and mad max have the deaper combat engines then ninja gaiden, bayonetta, or devil may cry...

peoples opinions on forums are worth jack shit, corroborating evidence in reviews is king.

thats why you dont vertical mount the hardware, horisontal master race.

I've had the same water loop, with the same water that has never been taken apart for the past 5 years.
Since sandybridge I have never had to worry about keeping an overclocked cpu cool.

Never had any hint of a leak.
Never had to take it apart and clean anything
Never had to drain and refill it
Only hoovered out the radiator once

And it has shown no degradation in performance over all this time.
It's rare to have any computer component withstand upgrades or struggle to cope as time goes on. Money well spent.

been using 212 from conroe gave me good overclock for E6300
when I upgraded to sandy bridge I just added a second fan for push-pull configuration for 4.7GHz overclock

This

was looking at the 212 + as they are basically the same in performance.

Wtf that will snap your motherboard in half

correct that, better then it for a reasonable price. there are a few cases that exhaust heat for passively cooled systems, both low end and extreme high end, but you are paying for it either way.

the d15 is just simply the best air cooler hands down, got one on my computer, the gpu will turn off fans completely if its under 60c and when it does that, I have a core x9 and its included fans, along with the d15, shit is almost 100% silent. Its honestly weird as fuck having a silent computer after coming off an old old computer with a audible hdd, another old computer that had 5 delta fans for cooling, another old computer that had amd stock cooler screaming at 5000rpm near all the time, only to now have my computer almost inaudible at all times.

Hell the only part of my computer that makes an audible noise is the bluray player.

LEL i've had AIO's for YEARS not once leaked. you doing them good drugs babe.

A Lot of people do this, well, not dig the drum outside, but use massive reservoirs to passively cool water systems.

Hell, if you own a home, drill a hold the the wall, and pass the water tubs through it, with a quick disconnect, that way you exhaust the hot air into a room you don't use/are actively using... if you are attaching everything inside the case, you are a fucking retard. they make the cases with easy to access holes for a reason.

>WORKS ON MY MACHINE(TM)

I had an AIO that after a year and a half would make horrible clicking noises on the pump and struggled keeping the CPU below 50°C idle. Never again.

Got ot cuz it was relatively cheap compact and easy to install. No regrets!
Corsair H55 for an i7 6700K.

>noctua

Owning a case with four Noctua NF-F12's, I can attest to the fact that Noctua fans are absolutely whisper silent. Why, oh, why did they decide to color them beige-on-brown? Great fans. Ugliest fans.

Sucks to suck brah.

>dude like they can leeeek lmao
>like what if the water burst at the mains and floods all of wayne tower
>dood it's stupid like XDD
>*sirens can be heard outside*
>It's not that bad man I'm onlying clocking in 90C on idle
>I'm not smoking anything mom

stay ignorant pajeet.

>noctua is not the best air cooling solution anymore
it never was

personal taste, I love the colors.

Also, its a testament to how good they are seeing as people still buy them even though they despise the color.

msi.com/search/B250M PRO/product/1

which one? I'm really poor to buy something better,

because only retards let a heavy mental paper weight hang off their fragile MB slowly bending it over time before eventually snapping a rail or microcracking all over.

I've installed plenty of CLCs and none of the units shipped out were ever reported to have problems.

I live in the tropics and the humidity is in the 80~90% with ambients at over 30C for more than 3/4s of the year. Realfeel is reporting 36C+

I personally run a Hyper 212X Turbo dual fan but it's barely adequate to cool my 1231-V3 I even had to replace the fans with 1800rpm high static pressure ones and it still hits 78C under aida 64 with only a 3.6ghz boost across all cores.

I've reseated the heatsink and replaced the thermal compound many times and this is the best result I could get with the Hyper 212x Turbo. Using a Lian-Li PC-9F case currently.

Looking into getting a 240 CLC in the future when I scale down to ITX, really really don't want to bother with the NH-D14/15 especially if I'm moving to ITX.

Loudest thing in my computer is the GPU by far when the fans spool past 50% on a load

212+ doesn't have AM4 support, so if someone had ryzen, they'd need the Evo.

>fuckhuge coolers that rek motherboards
what could posibly go wrong

This. Most DDC variants move the same amount of water at 60% PWM as they do at 100 but put off much less noise.

Dark rock pro 3 vs Le grand macho rt vs NH-D15, which is best? Cant seem to find many benchmarks that compare all 3 or even 2 of those.

What about the 212X?

Intel temperature spikes are better controlled with water cooling loops. Properly sized radiators are also cooler while freeing up room on the motherboard.

>paying near $100 for a piece of copper and some plastic.
Nah, I'd rather give that to an AIO maker.
>breaks hurr durr
Warranty. Any hardware damage they have to replace ect.

Currently the Corsair GTX h100 preforms at the same level as the nocurna shit. In both silence and heat.
It's over priced because it's currently flagship, but shouldn't be for much longer. They sell H100 V2's for $110.

I do find my V2 a bit noisy, but it's strapped to an 8350, I'd imagine corlets wouldn't have much problem, even Ryzen should be fine.
I don't plan on getting another AIO on my next build. Rather a custom loop. I'll even strip the radiator from this AIO, That almost pays for its self considering rads can be $100+ alone.
Stop overpaying for air coolers for fucks sake.

>spending more for a louder cooler because you think air coolers are overpriced
lel

water cooling is more silent compared to air coolers when at max cooling and thats important for me, so its ok to pay a premium for that reason.

$30-40 per fan. $30-40 per fan. $30-40 per fan. $30-40 per fan. $30-40 per fan. $30-40 per fan. $30-40 per fan.
Justify it. I'm pretty sure there's a few patents they've ripped off too.

>tfw NH-D14 going strong after all these years
>tfw it's probably the tallest cooler that can fit with in my new micro-ATX case

Anybody have any experience overclocking on Ryzen with this cooler? I'm getting the 1600X in a few days, was wondering what the results were.
