Hi there,

I want to replace the stock fan that came with my 8350(too noisy). There's a problem though, the screws holding the bracket are not all the same size, only 1 is standard(comes out no problem) and the rest are fatter and my screwdriver gets no grip. I have tried a few variants, but I've gave up.

So It needs to be a clip on, which I know are not the best, but I don't OC.

So yeah, if you can recommend the best/quiet cpu fan/heatsink for me that'd be great :) price is less than £50 if you can.

Thanks guys.
 
Solution
Consider a closed loop liquid cooling set up such as Corsair H60 or H65. All the necessary parts and screws come with it and it will keep that 8350 chilled with little or no noise.
