I am currently building my 1st computer. i got the i5 3570k IV processor. i might consider OC in the future so i rather get/install aftermarket heatsink fan now before i put it in the case because from what i understand its a hassel to do it afterwards. i most likely will do minimal oc nothing extreme. the case i got is the corsair 300r. budget not higher than 50 bucks. which one would you recommend and if neither of those then which one should i go with.

The testing was done on 775 socket cpu's but tho the temps may be different than listed they should still scale the same as far as best to worse.
