So I have a msi 970A g43 mobo with a hyper evo 212 with two cougar 120 mm turbine fans on it and a noctua fan on the back of case and two of those same cougar fans on the front of case pulling in air also but temps are pretty high when gaming or installing anything about 57-49C so I was thinking of upgrading to a zalman lq 310 cooler hoping it would lower my cpu temps what do u guys think. I'm only doing this cause I'm tired of these temps and the cooler is on sale for 35 after rebate I have a fx 8320 amd vishera cpu also with a am3+ socket, if u can suggest anything better also please just post thanks all help is appreciated!=) Also with top case fans as exhaust and side as intake my temps seem to rise also don't know why and those sides and top are louder with fans I have the raidmax Horus mode size case kinda looks abit like an Alienware product if that is any sort of useful info but please reply before sale ends

For 35$ the 310 is a steal! It has similar cooling compared with a h100 and is a fraction of the cost. As long as you're getting a good deal.. That's about the best it's going to get unless you go custom loop :)

If you're looking for some silent case fans, check these out :)

What's awesome about those is they come with multi'colored rings so your fans can match your case/color pattern.

I would contact them and ask for a "raincheck?" They may be able to give you the same price when they become available. But at the full price of 70-85$.. I think it would be worth it to pick up a h100i instead!!
Too bad, that was a great price!

Are you Canadian or American?
If you are Canadian, Ncix.com offers it at 36.99 (30$ MIR) with free ground shipping and 5% Sales tax only if you don't live in BC.
Not sure how much it turns out to be if you import though...
