Hi guys! I’m about to do my first sff buid. I have a i5 6600k ( more than 65 tdp) and more keen to use the noctua 9li . For the noise, price and Because its easier to install when compared with the liquid coolers.

Do you think will keep the temps acceptable or should I get liquid cooling ?

Thanks!

My Asetek 645LT keeps my cpu temps below 60c while gaming in 1440p in games like control, Modern Warfare and The Outter Worlds. I'm running an i7-8700k so though so with your i5 you might be ok with air. Dan has a shroud that would help as well.
