Intel i5 4690K Overclocking to 4.5GHz with a Cooler Master Hyper EVO 212X

  • Can the air cooler adequately chill the CPU in our country? People abroad say it\'s doable but their climate is totally different from us. Our summers hit a 40C!

    I want to keep my CPU overclocked to 4.5GHz or as low as 4.3GHz. I intend to use my setup for heavy gaming and photography processing.

    For those interested, my build is:

    Intel i5 4690k (P10,900)
    Cooler Master Hyper 212X Evo (P1,650)
    Gigabyte GA-Z79X Gaming 5 (P7,900)
    2 x G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory (P5,800)
    Boot Disk: Samsung 850 EVO 250GB 2.5” SSD (P5,500)
    Storage Disk: 2 x WD Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5” 7200RPM (P4,900)
    Gigabyte GeForce GTX 970 4GB Windforce Video Card (P20,290)
    Fractal Design Define R4 (Titanium) ATX Mid Tower Case (P5,300)
    SeaSonic M12II-750 EVO 80Plus Bronze Fully Modular (P4,550)

    My alternative to the Cooler Master Hyper EVO 212X is the Corsair Hydro Series. However, they are hugely more expensive than the air cooler. My whole rig as of this moment costs P66,690.
