Hello everyone and Merry Christmas to you all.
I am running an AMD Phenom II X3 720 with an unlocked core @ 3.0 GHZ using the stock heatsink, but with a 120 mm fan that I have modded myself. I also use K10Stat which allows me to customize Cool n Quiet (set up overclocking profiles, undevolt, etc...)
My idle temperatures with my CPU running at 400 MHz is around 22-25. While gaming or prime 95, it goes to 55-62 which I think is hot.
So I am wondering if the Scythe Mugen 2 is still the best performer in its price range. I am not willing to spend more than 45$ (Newegg) so please keep suggestions in that price range.
Thank you,
