I have a FX6300 and looking to overclock that soon to about 4.1 ghz but I cant make up my mind on getting the Hyper 212 Evo or H100i
The H100i right now at Bestbuy is 90$
& the Hyper 212 Evo is 30$
Which is best for what I want to do, or can you recommend a better cooler less than 50$

I never understand this question, it always confuses me that people compare a $30 cooler to a $90+ cooler. :)

Regardless, you could easily cool past 4.1GHz with the 212 EVO (probably 4.5GHz or so)

With the H100i you could get closer to 5GHz.

I personally would go in between and get a great air cooler like the PH-TC14PE or NH-D14 (if they fit in your case). They cool just as well as the H100i, cost less and are quieter.

For sheer price to performance, the 212 EVO wins.

for a 4.1ghz overclock, you can get the evo. if you ever plan to try to clock it up past 4.5 or so, get the h100i

The 212 evo is the cheapest you'll find thats great, best air is probably the nh d14, and that is quite close with the h100i. So its really what you'd like to spend money on, and what can fit in your case.
