Guys,

I'm upgrading my rig's CPU to a FX-8350. I was just reading that this CPU runs hot. I'm not planning anything more than mild over clocking but want to keep the temp down.

I need a recommendation for a CPU cooler. One that's easy to install that does not require access to the back of the MOBO.

Thanks!

I don't know any heatsinks other than the stock one that don't need access to the back of the motherboard.

Unfortunately you are more than likely to hve to get your hands dirty and mount a backplate etc. but I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Coolermaster Hyper212 Evo as it is cheap and preforms well. As for ease of assembly it can be annoying but when I built my PC it only took me 15-20 mins to get the Heatsink onto the mobo.
