Hello everyone,
I just set up my computer two weeks ago and i want to overclock my CPU in the future. The thing is at that time i didn't have money to spare on a cooler too so i am now running the cpu on the stock cooler. It's not suck a big deal since it doesn't get any hotter than 52 degrees in games (meaning real games not mmorpgs or anything) but the thing is i want to oc it to 4 Ghz or MAX 4.3 Ghz..
Now here's the deal I've recently wanted to buy a water cooler because i heard that it cools very good but just the IDEA of water near the components scares me a bit. I'm not a rich man and my computer with taxes was 1000$ (ofc you will see that the prices of the components have much lower prices but i pay 24% OF THE TOTAL PRICE TO THE GOVERNMENT BECAUSE OF THE TAXES so I paid 124% of what i wanted meaning 1000$ ).
I would prefer an air cooling cooler with heatpipes and i don't care of the price (i will buy it in the future) I just want it to be compatible with my case (I don't have a lot of room left ).
My specs:
CPU: AMD FX-6100 stock 3.3 ghz (turbo 3.9 Ghz )
GPU: Gainward NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 2 GB OC 1006 Mhz and 3054 memory clock (+ 3054 Mhz on turbo)
Mobo: GA-970A-D3
PSU: INTER-TECH 650W COMBAT POWER CP-650
RAM: Corsair CMZ8GX3M2A1866C9 (8GB 1866 Mhz )
Case: Segotep C2R
And here is a picture to let you see how much space i have left between the CPU and the RAM:

Sorry I didn't know how to post the image instantly as this is my first post here
If you have any good cpu cooler recommendations that can fit in there please post them here
