Hi,

As the title says my AMD stock cooler doenst work all that well anymore. My temperatures are very high at a high load. Thus the only solution I see is to buy a new cooler. As its dust free and I am pretty sure it has nothing to do with the thermal paste. A lot of people recommend the Cooler Master Hyper 212. Its very cheap but I heard its very big and I dont know if it will fit in my case. Will it fit and if not what are some other cheap alternatives.


CPU : A8-5600K
GPU : The integrated one AMD Radeon 7560D
Mobo: ASRock Fm2A55M-DGS
Case:
Just a normal black one as you can see in the picture.
PSU: 420W

I do not see a picture, however the Hyper 212 is ~160mm tall, so if the case is shallower than that, it will not work. Also, what are the temperatures you are running at currently?

At idle 30-35 but while playing non demanding games it will run around 85C and shut down within 10 minutes

Ooooohh, yeah, that's pretty rough. Is the fan spinning up on the cooler? Because coolers typically don't simply become "less effective" if everything is properly maintained.
