Water Cooling?
I'm buyng a Gaming PC from Ironside Computers. I have the option of spending some extra money on cooling. I will not be overclocking any time soon, and I need to know if spending $35 (USD) on "Advanced Air Cooling" or $40 on Asetek Liquid Cooling (Maintenance Free) would be worth it. I'm on a budget, but I'm not allowed to build my own computer because my parents don't believe in my ability to.

I plan on using the Nvidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti for my GPU and the Intel Pentium Dual Core G3258 for my CPU.

PC Specs- Computer Name: "The Fiend"

CPU - Intel Pentium Dual Core G3258
CPU Cooler - "Standard" Air Cooling (according to Ironside)
GPU - Nvidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti
Motherboard - B85 Chipset Motherboard
RAM - 8gb (2x4gb) DDR3 1600 MHz
HDD - Western Digital 1tb 7200rpm
Case - Ironside Fiend Case (IDK specifics)
PSU - EVGA 500 Watt Power Supply
Monitors - 1x HP Pavilion 60 Hz (IDK specifics)
Sound Card - None

Peripherals-

Mouse - Razer Naga Epic
Keyboard - HP SK-2061
Headset - Cheap $40 Steel Series (IDK specifics)

I live in Florida (HOT), but my home is always a steady 75 degrees. So I have come to the conclusion that I will not need any additional fans other than the stock fans. Am I correct?
Does the case have any fans included?

Yes, I believe.

"I believe" is not all that great of an answer. Go find out if that case has any fans included.

If you are not overclocking can you afford an i3 as its better than a g3258 once you decide to overclock the g3258 you will want to buy a cooler.
Edit: You can't overclock on a b85 anyway so I really would push for an i3 and no cooler above stock is needed anymore.

So one intake fan on the front and an exhaust fan on the back?
weeee🤑🤑 2 jul. 2015 às 13:56 
Yes, along with the stock fan on both the CPU and GPU

Well, that should definitely be enough to cool your computer - no need for any aftermarket CPU or GPU coolers.

You can feel free to add me if you need any further help with your computer. I build my own last December and have done lots of research.

Also, fellow carrot! <3
