I have few doubts and question regarding the CPU cooler for my Dell inspiron i570 desktop computer. First of all I would like to know whether it is possible to mount the largest and the most effective CPU cooler easily on this machine’s case. There must be at least someone who have this same model computer and has been successfully able to mount a 95W or above CPU cooler. I am looking out for a Cooler that is actually being fixed not with the help of some clips instead they are held with the help of the screws within the Inpiron 570 case. I personally analyzed the case and found that from the top of the CPU to the side panel there are some 5” square footprint and about 6” maximum vertical that is available for the replacement. After checking out the dimension and also analyzing the deepest way possible I believe that Cooler Master 212 Evo and Zalman models won’t be able to fit into it, they can’t make out qualifying for 570 case even though they are the most popular ones. There are certain traditional style heatsinks that are rated at 95W by Dynatron, startech and Deepcool, I have already tried all of them. Amongst them the one that I have retained is the Deepcool Alpha 400ST by keeping my 125W CPU running within the range of 32 to 37C even at normal usage. With this range the OCCT is showing up it level out after few minutes at 61 to 63C. During the normal access to the system I have always been at 25C with 95W chip and then maxed out the OCCT 1 hour test by keeping less than 55C.
Anyways amongst all I think Arctic 13CO 200W model would be much promising but I am strongly against those heavy heatsinks that are supposed to be fixed with the help of two screws set into the rubber mount. i am really expecting lot of suggestion from your side, please help me out. if there’s no help then I will have to somehow purchase few number of Coolers from Amazon and then try them all. I will keep the one which is suitable for me and return the rest that doesn’t matches my requirement. This is the only possible solution left from my side. Please suggest something.
