Not really sure about the basics of building a PC cooling solution but here is my thoughts
The CPU cooling device which will be
a CPU Fan (like this) or a CPU Heatsink (like this)or a CPU fan with heatsink (like this though I only see a fan) and this (here I can see both) and this (I also see a fan only)
Seems that they have some standard sizes like 80/92/110/120 and these sizes determine the case size (mid tower/full tower) so if we choose a 120mm cooler the case must be a full tower size
Why most people consider Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme the best CPU cooling selution though it doesn’t have a fan?
Can we install 2 parts together?
Any useful link for n00bs?
Ahhhh, the rest are too complicated so I’ll just stop here
Btw, what is this?
now I knew, it's a thermal goop between the CPU cooler and the CPU and for best results we should always use it
