What heatsink/fan to use with a Six Core?

Last response: in CPUs

I have recently purchased the Thuban Black edition 6 core from amazon only to figure out it doesn't come with the heatsink or fan :(  I looked all around and couldn't really put my finger on the compatible one. Can you please try to find an average fan/easy to install heatsink(like pop in). I won't pay more than 30 bucks for it. I know I am a little cheap but I am tight on cash. Here are my components:

ATI 5770
PSU: rocket fish 500 W
8 gigs ddr3 ram
ASUS 890GX mobo
AMD Phenom II x6 Thuban Black edition 3.2 Ghz

What a coincidence. I was actually looking at that one a few minutes ago. Thanks for the fast reply. Now I gotta say, I am not that great at installing things but is this one an easy one. This is because I am switching to the 6 core and that requires a new MOBO which is a pain in the neck to install along with the cpu itself.

Nevermind the AM3 thing. It said it was compatible. If I go to the amazon page and scroll down, it says that the highest supported cpu is amd phenom II x4. I was wondering if it also worked with the x6's.
