if the D15S model, yes it will be great. AIO and air coolers actually work just as well as each other. Model and brand just depend, just do research for which one you think will work best for you!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.AIO is a pain. Noctua would be more than enough.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I find my Liquid cooled system keeps this within range.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.yes , just dont overclock it
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I think so, definitely. Hard to know with so many factors, but I would bet that the Noctua would keep it cool enough. I use a H150i Elite Capellix XT AIO with a 360mm degree radiator and it stays very cool. I will upload a photo of my CPU temps. (This is with a bunch of excel sheets open, Outlook, Firefox, Microsoft Teams, iCue, XTU. Wont be a gaming load but the temp of my AIO COOLANT stay between 26°C and 32°C). Note that I said coolant and not the actual CPU package, but they directly correlate.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The Noctua NH-U12A, the NH-D15, the DeepCool AK620 are all good choices for cooling. I am using the all white DeepCool AK620 in my build with excellent results.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have a noctua and if I run a Intel benchtest it throttles the PC I would do no less than a water cooler with a 280mm cooler.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.For the Core i7 13700K, we recommend liquid coolers over air coolers since this CPU has the potential to output a lot of heat due to its high power budget. Suggested Options from Tech Sources online (Air & Liquid): Noctua NH-D15S chromax.Black. CPU Cooler For Core i7-13700k. ASUS ROG Ryujin II 360 RGB. 360mm AIO Cooler For Core i7-13700k. Arctic Liquid Freezer II 240 A-RGB. 240mm AIO Cooler For Core i7-13700k. DeepCool AS500 Plus White.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I'm using the Noctua NHD15s Chromax on mine, and the 13700k chip was running between 75-78° during initial burn in stress tests and idles around 35-38°(my fan curve is pretty slow under 40°.) After doing some mild undervolting in Intel XTU, dropping the chip by -0.150mv resulted in a significant temp decrease under full load, dropping package temps down by around 10° on average. I'm planning on adding the second fan to the front tower of my cooler to lower idle temps a bit more without having to increase fan speeds noticeably.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Good enough for gaming most likely, but there are a lot of other variables such as case and fan layout. I got the i7 and could have probably done just as well to get the i5 and overclock it.
