What is a good cpu fan for overclocking under $40 that will fit the Tomahawk B350 motherboard?

Solution
Just an FYI, CPU coolers don't use the chipset for compatibility since the chipset has nothing to do with the mounting system of the CPU cooler. Rather it's the SOCKET type (like AM4 and LGA 1151) that tell you if it's compatible or not.

I'd recommend the CRYORIG H7 or the CoolerMaster Hyper 212 EVO. What CPU do you have?

That's really hot right? I plan on getting the Seasonic Focus Plus Gold 650W, Idon't know the specifics but i think power supply can affect that. let me know if I'm wrong, also will them R5 2600 run cooler?

I dont plan on pushing my processors limits until I can afford better cooling/ know more about overclocking.
