Help choosing CPU cooler

Last response: in CPUs
Share

I'm looking for a good CPU cooler for my Phenom II x6 1055t, preferably under $50. My case is an Azza Toledo 301 and the dimensions are 19.5 x 9.1 x 20.1 inches (495 x 231 x 510 mm) (H x W x D). I was looking at this cooler http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168..., but I'm not sure if it's any good or if it would fit in my case. I'll also be gaming a lot on this computer. What would your suggestions be?

COLGeek's recommendation is as solid as it gets and yes the 212+ will fit that case width no problem with room to spare.
Memory height might be more of a concern = how many slots you're using.
You'll be fine if it's under 41mm tall.
Should be o.k with 212+ lots of people squeeze them into cases 7.5" wide.

Sorry for the late reply, I just got home from work. If memory means RAM, I have two slots and their pretty short (sorry I'm not to tech savvy). But if I remember correctly their pretty close to the CPU. I have a micro ATX motherboard if that helps any.

You will be fine then. The concern was with how tall your DIMMs (the memory sticks) would be.
