Got the hr-02 and it just fitted in this case. Got 2 fans running at 800rpm and the system is about 33c and the CPU which is amazing is at 31c with no CPU fan. Have not prime tested it yet but as this is a htpc and the gfx card will do the work it should keep cool all the time. And my gfx is passive...

just bought the HR-02 to go inside the fractal design mini

been looking at the

Sharkoon Golf Ball Silent Eagle SE fan
noctua nf-s12b
and G typhoon 1450rpm with fan controller to get it to 900 rpm

but i dont know which to go for for silent but good air flow

what case fans did you go with in the end as i am building a HTPC and basicly the same system, i am after teh HR-02 in teh fractal design mini i noticed the HS is 160mm tall and the case is 165mm did it fit ok ? i have not decided yet on what case fans the noctua nf-s12b or the fans that come with t...

had a read about the HR02 macho but everyone said the normal HR02 was a much better HS

seems to beat the older 1156 i7 stock cooler at idle by 5c and nearly 10c at load without a fan thats exellent as this would go on a i3 which is even better as its a sandybridge low power version

the only 2 Hs i can find are these so what would be best this thermalright HR02 + Scythe Gentle Typhoon 120mm 1150 RPM Cooling Fan turned down to 700rpm OR Prolimatech Megahalems Rev B + Scythe Gentle Typhoon 120mm 1150 RPM Cooling Fan turned down to 700rpm OR Noctua NH-D14 OR Thermalright Silver Ar...

What about a Prolimatech Megahalems Rev B can u use tha as a passive hs ?

Hi all Building a htpc and I am buying a fractal r3 case for silence. Now this case comes with 2 fractal 120mm fans but herd they a quiet but don't move to much air. What is a good 120mm fan that moves more air but is more silent ? I don't want to hear the fans as I am using these in a sitting room ...

just bought some 2x2GB low profile Vengeance CL9 1.5v memory as it just came out and found some.

been reading up and theres no difference between CL8 and CL9 on a sandybridge system, well there is a very very very small amount but it would be hard to notice any improvments.

Hi all need help on my htpc, I just bought a i3 sandybridge 3.3ghz 65w cpu and wanted to know which is better at cooling and sound levels between the Scythe Shuriken BIG Quiet Scythe Shuriken Rev.B Quiet Low Profile. also would i benifit over the stock i3 cpu cooler as i have not built it yet would ...

Motherboard is a ASUS p8p67-m pro, u have any pictures

Thanks

I read that there's hardly any benefit from cl8 to cl9 on sandy bridge as i can get xms3 memory that is cl9 at 1.5v

Is 1.5v ok for sandy bridge as I have also read that 1.65v is not advisable.

Thanks
