I need a new cooler for the amd fx-9590. My h80i is not really working with my cpu. I am on a tight budget and don't to hear get a different cpu or anything else that is not related to what I am asking. I just want to get my desktop back up and running. I know about the corsair h100i but would like to look at other coolers.

This may not be what you want to hear, but you have 2 options:

1. Spend a few hundred on a custom liquid loop

2. Do all your operations in a walk in freezer.
 


Funny thing is even in a 360 rad loop the cpu tends to run too hot.

Underclock the CPU to 8350 levels. Can't justify throwing another $100 at this platform.
 


Anything you can carry over from the old pc to lower the costs (psu, storage,...)? You'll have to part the old one out anyways as a 9590 complete rig does not sell at all usually or far below the price.
Might want to add a ssd in the new build otherwise it's just fine.

I am going to part over the psu and the hard drives from previous build
I just added the psu and the hard drive to show what they were going to be.

I am buying a new FX-9590 arriving tomorrow. This fool will let you know results on a GA-990FXA-UD3 R5.

There is always that one person who ingores everyone and buys the bad products. Also enjoy your barely funtional space heater.
