Hi, I wanna buy a Cooler for my i5 2500k to OC.
I need one not very expensive ($30-$50) , and not too big.
I have an asrock HM61-VS and I don't wanna get one big that could leave me without space for my gpu and ram (they are very close to the cpu. )

And what should I buy to clean the thermical paste and what thermical paste should I buy ? ( I've seen Artic Silver. )

Guys thanks for the answers.
This one isn't really expensive, guess, but what do you guys think about this one? ( And I my case is a Thermaltake V3 Black Edition )

I'll buy : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835103099 ( Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo) ; http://www.superbiiz.com/detail.php?name=FAN-ARS-35&c=CJ (Arctic Silver 5) .
I saw this in newegg , I never have changed the thermical paste of my cpu before (almost 2 years. ) So I don't know if this item will be useful.

Yes,for overclocking you'll need another motherboard too,although not a Z87 motherboard but Z77 , Z75 , Z68 or even P67 .

For the price does it seem a good choice.A review in which overclocking is done too,

for something else,

The cooler is a nice choice too.

For cooling paste would i use the next,

http://pcpartpicker.com/part/arctic-cooling-thermal-paste-mx2r (this one seems to do well with the "rice grain method")

I did look again and there comes a little syringe/tube with cooling paste with the evo so it's not really necessary to buy extra.It should be enough for a few times to use.
