I am searching for a budget cooler, to replace the noisy stock Intel cooler. And after the article read I found that the Alpine 15 CO won’t make difference at noise levels difference (from what it says in the review) can you tell me a budge & simple cpu cooler with a good low noise?
I don’t use the PC hardly, and I only play soft games. No overcloking. It 12400F.
I APPRECIATE any tips, for low budget coolers with low noise levels. I can’t stand the stock Intel fan noise anymore, and I only have this Pc at 2weeks.
Do you have any height restrictions? If not, there is the Spartan 5 (EY3A001, model with two heatpipes). It’s cheap and for Ci5-12400 has sufficient cooling performance even at very low/quiet speeds. But if you need a low-profile cooler that is more effective than the Laminar RM1, it will be more complicated. Especially if it has to be cheap at the same time.
Have you tried to adjust the PWM control curve of the Laminar RM1 with respect to quieter operation? Maybe the control is more aggressive than it could be. According to our findings, the cooling performance of Laminar RM1 on Ci5-12400 is sufficient even at lower speeds, as long as the processor is not operated at maximum performance without power supply limits (at 95 W). With power limitation according to PL/TDP limits (to 65 W) or in gaming load (where the power draw is always to 60 W), Laminar RM1 with lower speed will be sufficient even in a case with average airflow. Unless you are working in an environment with excessive ambient air temperature. 🙂
