Hello,
I have a 4930k with:
Sabertooth x79
G.Skill RipjawsZ DDR3 1866 PC3-14900 32GB 8x8GB CL10

The system is running 24/7 doing a lot of virtualization, its currently working at 100% with 50-55ºC as core temp and 55-60ºC as individual core temp with a bad cooler.

I would like to low/medium OC it, low ºC and voltage, i want it to last.
Im aiming to improve software stability and speed, will it work? Anyone know a stable OC for this setup? Would like a cooler that doesn't rape a RAM slot, is CM Hyper212Evo enough?


Thanks.
 
hyper 212 EVO is a great cooler and should help quite a bit, there are better ones for sure, but the cost increase for the performance gain is significant and not much overall, only a top end air(phanteks and similar) AIO(such as antec 950, H100-110 or custom loop) would end up giving a noticeable edge but again the cost increase vs the additional headroom does not seem to be beneficial.

Gamer Storm Lucifer CPU Cooler, Raijintek Themis, Titan Dragonfly 4, Zalman CNPS10X Optima Shark’s Fin cpu cooler, Silverstone Argon AR03 cpu heatsink, there is many to choose from but I believe the 212 EVO really is one of the best ones for the $, the original 212 plus is slightly better $/performance but the 212 EVO is a better performer slightly :)
