I am trying to find a good cooler for my AMD FX-8370 which is currently using the stock Wraith cooler.
The current set up is:
Asus 970 PRO GAMING/AURA ATX AM3+ Motherboard
Corsair SPEC-ALPHA ATX Mid Tower Case
2x 8 Gb Hyper X Fury

I have read this article:
suggesting the Noctua NH-U9B SE2 37.9 CFM CPU Cooler but it is simply too expensive where I live.
I like the look of the Cooler Master V8 GTS as it seems like it's a good cooler and matches the black and red build but it seems it won't fit but read this article that states the case could probably go up to a 170mm CPU cooler.
Not sure if there may be issues with clearance on the RAM. An AIO liquid cooler would provide a lower profile but having never had one I'm not sure about the reliability. I understand that a Cooler Master Hyper 212X is a good cooler and is reasonably priced, at a later stage I would like to dabble in some overclocking so not sure if this cooler would be sufficient.

Any advice and help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
