When it comes to high-performance gaming, speed and power are everything—but heat is the enemy. A powerful gaming rig generates a lot of heat, especially during long sessions or while running demanding titles. Without proper cooling, your system could slow down, crash, or even suffer permanent damage.
At Help Computer Centre, 94 High Street, Bangor, we specialize in keeping your gaming PC cool and performing at its best. Whether you’re building a new system or upgrading an existing one, here’s what you need to know about the best cooling options.
🌬️ 1. Air Cooling – Affordable and Effective
Air cooling uses heatsinks and fans to draw heat away from your CPU and GPU. It’s cost-effective, relatively simple to install, and works well for most gaming builds.
✅ Best for: Budget to mid-range gaming PCs or cases with good airflow.
🛠️ How Help Computer Centre can help: We stock a range of high-performance air coolers and fans, and our team can install them properly to ensure balanced airflow throughout your case. We’ll even clean out your system and replace old thermal paste for maximum efficiency.
❄️ 2. AIO Liquid Cooling – Silent and Stylish
All-in-one (AIO) liquid coolers offer superior thermal performance, especially for overclocked CPUs. They’re quieter than air coolers and often come with RGB lighting and sleek designs.
✅ Best for: High-end gaming PCs, streamers, and anyone who wants performance and aesthetics.
🛠️ Installation not your thing? Let us handle it at Help Computer Centre, Bangor. We install AIO coolers safely, making sure the pump, fans, and radiator are set up correctly. We’ll also walk you through maintenance tips so your cooler lasts longer.
🌡️ 3. Custom Water Cooling – The Ultimate in Performance
If you want the best cooling performance—and a setup that turns heads—a custom water cooling loop is the gold standard. It cools your CPU, GPU, and sometimes even RAM or motherboard components.
✅ Best for: Hardcore gamers, overclockers, and showpiece builds.
🛠️ At Help Computer Centre, we offer guidance on custom cooling loops and can help you source parts, plan your loop, and install components. Even if you’re not ready to build a custom loop now, we can help you plan a case and setup that supports it in the future.
🔄 4. Case Fans and Airflow – The Unsung Heroes
Even with the best CPU or GPU cooler, poor airflow can ruin performance. Your PC case needs intake and exhaust fans positioned for optimal ventilation.
✅ Best for: Every gaming PC. Good airflow improves component lifespan and overall cooling.
🛠️ Let us help you optimize airflow. We’ll recommend the right fan setup for your case, clean existing fans, and install additional ones if needed. We even test for hotspots using thermal diagnostics.
🧼 5. Regular Maintenance Matters
Even the best cooling system won’t work properly if it’s clogged with dust or the thermal paste has dried out.
🛠️ Book a Cooling Checkup at Help Computer Centre. We offer professional cleaning services, thermal paste reapplication, and fan/pump testing. It’s a quick way to boost performance and prevent damage.
