Cooler support for Corsair air 240
Cooler support for Corsair air 240
I recently assembled a Hackintosh and am testing it on Windows 10 (planning to install OS X soon).
While running Prime95, my CPU reached 93 degrees Celsius.
I’m considering purchasing the Dark Rock Pro 3 from bequiet because of its strength, stealth, and black design. Could it fit into my Corsair Air 240?
Best regards
It will not. The Air 240 accommodates up to 120mm coolers:

The Dark Rock Pro 3 measures 163mm:

Notably, the Air 240 can also fit a H100i GTX CLC cooler.
This model doesn't fit properly.
The highest CPU cooler should reach 120mm.
Using liquid cooling is recommended.

Won't fit .
Optimal CPU cooler height
120mm
Liquid cooling is the top choice.

Which cooler do you suggest for boosting an i5 4690K? I really needed one!

Compatible Corsair Liquid Coolers include H55, H60, H75, H80i, H100i, and H105. Anything below the H80i is not worth it in my view.
The H100i GTX offers excellent value for the case and is ideal for CPU overclocking.
You might be interested in knowing about other air coolers available.
The design should match the specifications—it stands at 110mm and the case accommodates up to 120mm heatsinks. I’d choose the H100i GTX personally since it will surpass the performance of that air cooler. Any other air coolers that beat the H100i GTX are too tall for this case.
