Hi, I am looking for a cooler for an AMD FX-8320 as the stock cooler is stupidly loud, even though it never gets above around 53 degrees. I don't really want to spend more than 20 quid or so so what is my best option?

I've found this Arctic cooler which seems like a very reasonable price but it is only meant for 90W CPU's. If I'm not OC'ing does this really matter? http://tinyurl.com/jnwzg8j

Thanks, Matthew :)
 
Solution
Any cooler with a 92mm fan will be largely ineffective and be noisy.
And... downdraft coolers are not as good coolers as tower types.

Look for a tower type cooler with a 120mm fan.
Cm hyper212, cryorig H7, scythe kotetsu are all in the £35 range.

Thanks but for £40 it's a little out of my budget :)
