Hello!
I've got a friend who's recently started working at a computer-warehouse, so he (and therefore I) can get really good deals at the stuff they have there. Problem is they don't have everything, and by some reason Spire is the only CPU cooler brand they have, so I was wondering if there are any decent Spire coolers for a Core 2 Duo CPU (E8500), or if I should spend some more money on another cooler from somewhere else.

Thanks for any help!

What kind of Spire cooler? If it's better than the stock one provided with the E8500, then it's fine, obviously.

If you want to OC, I'd suggest you get a better cooler, such as the Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme, which may be overkill.

Is this the cooler? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6835166037
