Choice Of Cooler

[cozwin]

I have a core2duo E6300 at the moment and am looking at 3rd party cooling at the moment i currently 2 HSF s in mind.

Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro
or
Coolermaster Hyper TX
Both highly recommended and both have good reviews.

So im looking for input, any one know which one is better or maybe recommend a diffrent HSF for £20 price range.

Thx

Theyre both very nice cooler for their price. The Hyper TX is on par with a Ultra-120 at stock speeds, but once you start raising the Vcore it quickly falls behind, I would only recommend it if youre going to keep your Vcore under ~1.38v at all times. On the hand the AF7 is the widely knowned winner for high overclocks while not breaking the bank.
