I was looking to replace my CPU fan, but I bought a prebuild and I’m not too sure what to look for in terms of size or specifications. I bought the MSI Codex R2 gaming desktop. Any suggestions would be appreciated
Do you know what your CPU is? CPU Coolers are dictated by what CPU they have. You can open “Task Manager” and locate your processor on the Top Right for Windows 11. Doing a quick google search tells me it’s LGA 1700 most likely, but I want to make sure you know for sure. Once you know what your CPU is, we can give you a final answer then.
Yes it’s the i5-14400F
Any CPU cooler that says LGA 1700, would be compatible. I’d take care of coolers with 3 fans due to size constraints. You can use a tape measure if you want to be completely sure. Many sites will list dimensions on the site as well.
Thank you for the info!
Only thing I ask, post a picture of the process or when the AIO is installed
Noctua products for heatsink fan combo are pretty solid.
I do not know enough about AIOs to recommend one.
