Budget 0-20k Best cooler for the Intel 12th Gen 12600k CPU

[Chofre]

I just saw the performance and reviews and went with it. I have linked some benchmarks that should help give to some ideas.

Btw are you looking to use it with the latest 12th gen Intel CPU? If yes you'll need a mounting kit. And i arranged for it from the US. And I'm not using it because i deferred my build for later. So if you want i can sell it to you. As for the cooler itself i don't have it. I think you can get it on Amazon.

I'll be using it with an AMD cpu. Thanks for your reply though

Btw just found this thing - https://www.tomshardware.com/news/easy-mod-reduces-alder-lake-cpu-temperatures-5-degrees-celsius

You should give it a try for your build. Obviously it has to be done before installing the cooler.

Check it out.

Yeah, one should try, because the very new size of Alder Lake processors means the fit & IHS coverage of the existing coolers may not be optimal. But jayztwocents tried this mod, and it didn't make a difference for him :
