I7 950 cpu cooler recommendation need

[drshim82]

Hi guys,

I just buit my new system a couple weeks ago with my old cpu(i7 920 c0).

Haf X case
i7 920 c0
GA-X58A-UD3R
Corsair H50 cooler
Corsair HX 850
Corsair Dominator 6 GB

I just bought a i7 950, it was on sale and I'm gonna put i7 920 and H50 back into my old pc and give it to someone.

I just want to get a new cpu cooler, but I need some advise/recommendation (I will ocing my cpu).

I was thinking about to get a Megahalem with push/pull fans on it but I just read some post that it won't fit to my mobo .

Is Armageddon good as megahalem? or any better recommed? My budget is around $120.00.

I just don't want to get Corsair H50 again. Want to try something else.

Also, I am using MX-3 thermal paste. Is there better one with shorter cure time?

Thanks in advance.

Hyper 212 and some fans with high CFM and Db rated below 30 decibles.
