Gamer786 :

I think this should work on that motherboard

Nice one mate, and what thermal paste would u reccomend

Gamer786 :

I believe you get some with it, but it's not that good.

MX-4 is REALLY good.

Look at the reviews. almost 100% 5 star.

I hope i helped!

Or this:

Whatever you want, both are good

Personally I am going with Xigmatek Dark Knight 2 (sd1283) (£32), it is extremely good and very cool looking
I use Mx-2 with it, it works really well, it does it job

Oh, but since this is so cheap, I'd say go for this:

http://www.amazon.com/Arctic-Silver-Thermal-Compound-Grams/dp/B000OGX5AM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1390149872&sr=8-1&keywords=arctic+silver+5

sorry for so many posts.

Gamer786 · Jan 19, 2014

Hahah no worries , thank you

Nefos · Jan 19, 2014

is there any specific cooler you want?
I mean closed loop water cooler, Huge cooler(like size of your head) small cooler, black cooler, purple
There are loads of choices, and while 212 Evo is a good choice, there are other great choices to personalize your PC

Nefos :

No point in spending a fortune. The hyper 212 is the best for $30, buying a 100$ closed loop is useless, when it costs more than the CPU itself... lol

And no offense.

Gamer786 · Jan 19, 2014

i want it to look good and i want to do some overclocking

gustafangus · Jan 19, 2014

Then the Hyper will be good. Your CPU has low TDP and therefore it'll keep it cool. Get it with the Artic silver 5 Tim.

Good luck!

Gamer786 · Jan 19, 2014

Alright thankss

Nefos · Jan 19, 2014

gustafangus :

Yes I know, that there is no point, but if you want something fancy and cheap you still have some options, like Zalman CNPS14X or the Dark Knight, and there are many others. They can look better as the evo 212 and for me it was important to be black.
