What is your current CPU Cooling Device?

Cooler is Noctua NH-U12P with a skinny 120x12mm fan @ 1200RPM.

Scythe Mugen 2 on I7-870 @ 4.2Ghz (with turbo on) on stock voltages

Idles at 29C and maxes out at 63C when gaming. Some of the stress tests can take it up into the 70s though.

Cooler Master Hyper 212+ on Phenom II X4 810 (2.6Ghz) @ 3.1Ghz

Stock Intel on Prescott 2.8Ghz @ 3.2Ghz since 2005
 
I've been a ThermalRight fan since I was finally able to get the SK6 copper back in grade school. Currently using the Venomous X with x2 Noctua NF-P12-1300 push/pull.
 
Have a Zerotherm Zen on a q9450 @ 3.2ghz on my pc which at the moment isn't being used. Worked quite nicely but haven't used that computer in about month (long story).:(
 
Have a Noctua C12P with 130cfm NBM PWM fan on it for 1090T...I hit 42C under Prime loads on all 6 cores in a 75F room.

Currently waiting on receiving Hyper 212+ to try it out, or use it on the spare box; Ph2 X3 740, unlocked and running 3.54 Ghz, using the stock heatsink with stock fan (thermistor replaced with potentiometer to make it spin the full 7k) and 10mm thick 70mm fan on top to help with static pressure. I hit 49C under Prime loads on all 4 cores in a 75F room.
 
h50 with the fans sucking air in and two large top mounted fans in the case sucking the intake air out

temps in the intel burn in test are low 60s

18x200 3.6Ghz 1.275v
 
Coolmaster Hyper 212 Plus on an Intel I7 860, but it's not keeping the temps down under load. Especially with HT turned on. 65C without HT, it'll go to 85C with. Not good.

Maybe I'll go with an NH-D14, but the price sucks.
 
water:

Block: EK Supreme

Radiator(s): (2) Swifttech Quiet Power 120x3

pump: MCP-655-B

Fan: (6) Yate Loon S12SH-12

tubing: 7/16ID 5/8OD

coolant: distilled water

keeping the creepy crawlies at bay: Bitspower True Silver 1/2" barbs (6)
 
I just got a Cooler Master Hyper 212+ for only $30+free shipping.

The following temps are idle/IBT (20 runs):

3.0ghz Intel Stock: 40C/64C
3.0ghz Hyper212 Plus: 33C/44C
3.6ghz Hyper212 Plus: 35C/53C
3.8ghz Hyper212 Plus: 36C/55C
4.0ghz Hyper212 Plus: 37C/58C
4.1ghz Hyper212 Plus: 38C/62C
4.2ghz Hyper212 Plus: 39C/64C

So basically it runs my E8400 the same temp at 4.2ghz as the Intel Stock HSF at 3ghz :) I think I'll keep 4ghz as my regular OC though, as the temps are more reasonable.

I should mention that IBT runs WAAAY hotter than any real program does though, so that's why these temps are so high. Prime95 runs at 50C @ 4.0ghz (vs 58C in IBT).

Almost finished build: Water on i7 930

1x Aqua CPU block
1x Aqua GTX470 block
2x Zalman Reserator 1
1x generic centrifugal aquarium pump @ 350GPH
2x EK X58 mosfet blocks
1x EK X58 north/south bridge block

1x Aqua Aquaero monitor LCD
2x Aqua temperature gauges
1x Aqua flow gauge

Due to the size of the final build, I have to build it almost one piece at a time :D
 
I'm sure I'll get some LOLs, but I'm sporting a Zalman CNPS9700 LED on my i7 920. :cool: I don't OC too much, just 3.2 GHz with HT on. It never gets above 60C during normal everyday use.
 
Currently on a Coolermaster V8 but I'm not completely happy with either the temps or the sound level.

Click to expand...

Hyper 212 is a good heatsink; I wonder why your temps are so high? What speed fan do you have on it, and what kind/how much thermal compound did you use?
 
Coolermaster GeminII S (I inverted the fan to use as a puller) on a AMD 1090T at 4.0 ghz in a SFF, idling at 28* and never passing 35* for what I do.

I did have to mod the chassis though.

Ven-X with OEM Li-Li fans on there. Getting some TY-140s or 1600RPM S-Flexes down the road. Leaning toward the TY-140s but not sure if they'll clear the mosfet heatsinks.

im using an h50 on my i7. sucks that i had to go to an exhaust setup moving to my new case. it raised my temps from 35ish idle to 40-42 idle and from 50c full load to about 60c under load.
