I have Amd phenom ii x4 955 be and you know how hot it gets in India my city gets around 43degree Celsius hot. So i was playing resident evil operation raccoon city and i noticed that my

CPU temp: 76c - 80c
GPU temp: 69c - 76c

so i was planing to buy new cpu heat sink Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo(from flipkart) as i only have 2200rs in hand. so i wanted to know will this heat sink fix on my motherboard and fix in my cabinet as i have iball entizer cabinet. And is this cooler good for me, as i play lots of game. And my other specs are.

AMD Phenom II X4 955 BE 3.2GHz
Crossair 4GB DDR3 1333MHz RAM
Sparkale Gefprce GTS 450 1GB Stock OC
MSI 785GM-P45 Motherboard
Cooler Master Extreme Power Plus 460w PSU
(OLD) 80GB HDD of Seagate
LG DVD Drive

these are the dimension on my cabinet :- 16.7 x 7.0 x 17.5 inches heir is the link for full specification of my iball Entizer Cabinet http://shopping.rediff.com/product/new-iball-entizer-mid-level-designer-cabinets/10477285

so guys tell me that will hyper 212 evo fit in my cabinet or should i go for tx3

will tx3 be able to handle heat because my room temp is aroud 32c without AC and CPU temp are 48 -50 idle and 76 - 80 in 100%load. Will tx3 be able to reduce temp. How much temp will be reduce by 212 evo and tx3, :hello:
 
The 212 EVO is too tall to fit in your case with the side panel on.
The tx3 is a good cooler that should just fit.
If you have aplace for an extra fan I would install it.
The best information I could find is that your case will accept 3 8cm fans but only comes with 2 installed.
If the 3rd fan is on the side panel it will not fit with the tx3 cooler

will tx3 be able to handle the pressure. My room temp is around 32 degree Celsius (without AC). And MY cpu temp are idle: 48 - 50 and 100%load on all 4 cores : 76 - 86. will tx3 be able to bring down the temperature of the cpu to 60c on full load
 
The tx3 runs about 22.c above ambient with a 125watt load. with your cpu at max load and ambient temperature of 32c temp would be 54c or 40c ambient 62c.
Within your desired range and budget. But if you have not already done it, install another case fan if possible. More air through the case means lower temperatures.
