Hyper 212

If you are thinking about doing some OC then I would make sure and have the additional fan for the back end of it although some may argue that it not be necessary. Fans are cheap, a hot processor is not.

The A50 has 6 heat pipes vs only 4 on the Hyper 212.

That would be enough to sway me towards the A50.

You will want to look into adding an additional fan opposite the one on there to create a push pull movement of the air over the heat sink for optimal cooling.

Every time I hear people talking about awesome coolers, it is always the Hyper 212.
