Hi

I have ordered some components to build a pc for the first time and I have been told that i should get a different processor cooler to what comes with my processor (Intel Pentium G860 3.0GHz) because I will be leaving the PC on all the time.

I was recommend the Coolmaster Hyper 212 Evo which would be find but I don't think it will fit into my case after looking at the specs, the case I have is Coolmaster 361, any ideas of a decent CPU Cooler that will fit in this case, I have had a look but can't find one?

Or is the standard cooler that comes with it ok not forgetting that it will be on pretty much 24/7?

Thanks for help

If you are not overclocking the standard cooler is actually pretty good and should be fine for 24/7 use unless your ambient temperature is well over 30 degrees.
