Currently, have a cooler master elite 310. Runs really hot (68 degrees now in this cold delhi temp)

I want to install a CPU Cooler (hyper 212/evo) in a new cabinet

Should i go for Elite 370 or Elite 431 (need bottom mounted PSU, top and front 120mm fans and dust filters as there is lot of dust in my environment

Please compare 370 vs 431 for me

^^ what cpu/mobo and psu you have ? how many fans you have in the cabby ?

If possible remount the cpu HSF with some good TiM first and see if that lowers the temp.

For cabby if you need one take a look at Cm Elite 430 ;-)
