Hi,

Recently, I have issue with my PC and I must moved the RAM slot to the one near the CPU.

Because of this, I could not mount the current CPU cooler "Scythe Mugen 2 Rev. B". It is just too big for this setup.

Do you have recommendation of a good CPU cooler, which is small and "easy to install"?

Scythe Mugen 2 Rev. B is nice, but installation is very difficult and too big.

I am using :

- Intel Core i5 660
- Gigabyte GA-H55M-USB3 iH55
- Cooler Master Big Tower HAF 912 Plus eATX

Right now, I am using stock cooler from Intel i5. The CPU cores temperature is around 30C on light usage (web browsing, etc.).
But it is a bit noisy with the cpu fan.

Thanks! :)

Cooler Master 212 would work just fine.
