It meets the specs and will be a vast improvement over the stock cooler. The top end temps it will maintain will depend on several other factors like case size, air flow, ambient temp, etc. Have you looked into the CM Hyper 212 EVO? http://www.amazon.com/Cooler-Master-Hyper-212-RR-212E-20PK-R2/dp/B005O65JXI
It has 4 heat pipes instead of 3 and they are larger, and it has a larger 120mm fan... if you have the room.

hi im having 2nd thoughts on getting a 120mm fan because of the size of my casing and how close the cooler will be on my ram cause the heatsink of my ram is high. can you please tell me how to identify a good 92mm fan. when i look at the spec of the air flow rpn etc i can only see numbers and dont know how to translate its effectiveness thanks!

The fan's CFM is not as important as the heat sync's design, heat pipe size, and radiator. I would go here and do a little reading about coolers. Maybe get a few ideas of what is good and what is not... and then see what is in your area:
