i have the stock AMD heatsink on my HTPC and ive had it with the sound of a vacuum when im trying to watch a movie
the Processor in it is a AM3 socket and my case is a APEVIA X-QPACK3, its kinda small so im needing a small good quiet heatsink
in my main gaming PC i have a Hyper 212 evo and it doesn't look like the evo would fit in that case
ive thought about Cooler Master Hyper TX3 or ARCTIC Freezer 7 Pro Rev. 2
any of those work or is there a better one out there
thank you
 
Solution
I own a EVO TX3 with a Noctua fan on it and the CPU Cooler is installed on my i7 4790K which is a very hot CPU. It is a cooler that can also be installed on AMD by using the parts that come with it.

thank you :) im going with the EVO TX3
 


Look on Youtube for the EVO TX3 AMD install tutorials, so you know how to install it when it arrives.

That cooler keeps my current i7 4790K CPU at 30-69C while when it had my old i5 4460 in the cooler could keep it at 30-40C.
