In our noise level tests we switched off all the case fans and replaced the AMD Radeon HD 7950 graphics card with a HD 5550 passive model so were just taking into account the noise generated by the cooler fans themselves. We measured the noise level with a Digital Noise Level meter at a distance of 1m from the front of the case.
The H60 can get a little loud when the processor is hit with extended 100% load, but it remains quiet during normal use.
Nice looking cooler for the price. ideal for my next system build.
Thats going to sell well, no doubt about it.
ive ordered one, thanks for the review.
these are great coolers, I already have one and it holds my 3770k at 50c under load at default clock speeds. I dont overclock.
The H series of coolers is great. The H60 is ideal for those who dont want to overclock or those who only have modest requirements for overclocking without too much voltage added.
Just ordered mine for $59 CDN.
Looks good for $50 less than the H80i.
