I have been looking everywhere for a good CPU Fan/Heatsink. I finally came across apparently the best one: Sunbeam CR-CCTF 120mm "Core Contact Freezer" CPU Cooler. I read around and it apparently is quite a hassle to install. Now this is my FIRST time building a PC, and I don't want to break anything. Is this fan a good choice for even a first time builder? Anything else better that could be recommended (I'm going to be overclocking so I want something good)? Thanks.
