hi,
i am going to upgrade my pc with this:
cpu
fx8320
ram
16GB 1600mhz
motherboard
asus m5a97 r2.0
case
sharkoon t9 value edition
power supply
corsair 600w modular powers supply

and i am planning on overclocking the fx8320 to 4ghz so it is as good as the fx8350
and someone told me i needed to get the cm hyper 212 evo for my fx8320
but the sharkoon t9 value edition already has 3 built in fans. two in the front and one at the back. are those fans enough for the cooling of my overclocked fx8320 with the stock cooler? or do i need to buy a better cpu fan/heatsink?

thanks :)

Alright well than the cm hyper 212 evo is your perfect choice! I read that someone asked if the "cm hyper 212 evo" was sufficient enough to overclock there 8320 to 4.0, and the reply he got was "A 212 Evo in push/pull kept my 8350 @ 4.7Ghz cool. So yes it should."

SO that cooler will work no problem.

I would suggest buying a better cooler. Even tho your case has extra fans doesn't mean those extra fans cool your processor directly just create better air flow to prevent heat pockets in your case.

BTW if your interested the Thermaltake water 2.0 pro is on sale on newegg for $65, and will allow you to overclock even more or just keep a lower temp in general.
