Yes, absolutely. I gained ~ 15°. It is running inside a DAN A4 with the same cooler (and it's slim stock fan + duct) and I can do 4.4 at stock voltage easily. It's still a great CPU for all my needs.

No. Better install a fan shroud.

The 6100 does a great job in my wife's computer, including occasional, but then serious foto editing in Lightroom. The 7100 might be marginally faster, but if you are dependent on win7 go for it. It's still a good OS and the 6100 is still a good chip. Nothing wrong with either oft them.

Thanks RosaJ and Ca11idius. It's indeed simple, so I updated my post over at spcr.

Yeah, well... I will. Can anybody recommend a photo hoster? No more photobucket for me.

My intention of this test series was/is to show the differences between the coolers and configurations at the very same specifications. As every chip is different and every delid creates different temperature gains my numbers at overclock will have very little meaning for somebody else. But the...

I did try a fan duct on the C7, but it does not make a difference. The C7 fan is very close to the side panel anyway, not much space for hot air to creep in. Same with the NF-9A on the NH-L9i by the way.

Last update, before the DAN cooler enters the stage: After having tested the NH-L9i with and without fan duct and the C7 with both fans the C7 and the Noctua one I finally got myself the Noctua NF-A9 fan. It is 25mm wide as opposed to the 14mm fan, that comes with the NH-L9i cooler. It is...

Nice! I like the red color ;) Did you try the NH-L9i with vertical fins? So the air exiting the cooler is directed up- and downwards, not sideways.

As I reported already a while back, I am running my delidded 6700K happily with an NH-L9i and a cheap cardboard fan duct, which looks like this: Finally I got around to testing the C7, which I originally bought for my A4 build: Long story short, after testing it, I reverted back to the...

Thanks fpr your reply. I know about brownian movement, I am no expert physician, though. Thus, out of interest: Do you know, how far a typical air molucule will travel, until it crashes into the next one? At what speed? If all molecules move around in a completely fuzzy manner, why can we feel...

Hi guys, first time poster here, have been lurking for a while, ever since I placed my order on kickstarter. Thank you Daniel for this amazing case. I am new to the SFF crowd, coming from the silent PC world (silentpcreview.com), having spent quite some time and energy on minimizing the noise...
