Hi guys,
I'm getting my new PC soon and I want to overclock my CPU for the extra performance and I understand that this causes a serious amount of heat to build up = bad for processor. Anyway, I'm getting an Intel i5-2500 processor and an ASUS P8H77-M-Pro Motherboard.
My question is, will I need expanded cooling and if so, what would be recommended? More/better fans or liquid cooling? I read that some liquid coolers aren't much better than fans?
Sorry if this is nooby stuff, but any advice would be much appreciated
