So my Cryorig C7 that's only a year and a half old is about shot. I have pets and live in a super dusty area, and I guess the fan couldn't take it. Needless to say, considering how long every single fan I've used over the past 15 or so years lasted, I am not happy.
Anyways, this means I am in the market for a new CPU cooler to fit into a Node 202 and later to transplant into my Sentry.
Given that I have a Radeon Nano, there is room for an AIO in the GPU bay, but that's a jury rig and limit to upgradability there. So, my other choice for this machine was the Samuel 17 and a slim fan, but that's not going to fit in the Sentry, so the only other cooler that comes to mind is the Noctua name I can't remember. Will that fit?
On a side note, does anyone have any tips for keeping fan bearings clean in the face of horrendous dustiness (and don't say filters, I have filters in the current case, but the Sentry doesn't)?
