As the title suggests I'm looking to buy a AMD FX-6300 and with that I want to Overclock to at least 4.0GHz which cooler is best? I am also open to other suggestions.
Depending on the characteristics of YOUR particular chip, and what motherboard you have (Which is intensely important. Some boards aren't even good enough for overclocking FX 6 core), this cooler should I think give you the ability to take that chip as high as 4.3-4.5Ghz.

Hi thanks for the answer sorry about the late reply I was injured >.< so the only problem I have with that is I'm in South Africa with a severely limited budget. I can really only buy some thing from this store rebeltech.co.za

I've just fitted a Cooler Master Seidon 120V for a friend, he's got my old 4670K clocked at 4.6Ghz. For the money and size I was quite pleased with the Seidon performance.
I like the Nepton as well. I don't particularly care for any of the Corsair AIO coolers, especially those with the link package on models ending in "I".
