I'm looking for a upgrade my cpu cooler am using a cheap Evo212 at the minute but it seems to struggle to keep my fx8350's temperature down am looking at
Cooler Master MAZ-T8PN-418PR-R1 "MasterAir" Maker 8. I like the look of it has anyone got any experience of these or any other suggestions would like something with led lighting if possible.
 
Solution
Consider investigating a liquid cooling solution. I run a Corsair H100i water / liquid cooler on my FX8350, and am very pleased with the performance. Full load puts the CPU in the low 40C range. The radiator mounts in the top of the tower case - make sure your case has the proper mounting provisions. It's around $100 US, but it is rock solid and works well.
