Hello all, I'm new here but tomorrow I'm going to buy few things to make a computer (that I will upgrade in near future)...

The thing is that my money loaded friend did create very powerful computer and he is giving me parts to start with...

....

Is hyper tx3 evo any good on fx 8350 (I won't OC or anything) - I read a lot about this stuff in last few days but as he is giving me Coolermaster Silencio 450, I think that case is too small for thermaltake contact 30 or 212 evo so I need to go with smaller and I chose hyper tx3.

I need to know if someone can answer on this 3 questions:

1. How much will my temps go lower then with the stock cooler with this hyper tx 3 cooler (approx ofc)? (I will try to make it push pull in few weeks)

2. Is it even worth of buying it for fx 8350? (I know it is ok cooler for that price but as I saw this amd procs are very very hot...)

3. Is there any other air cooler you would recommend having on mind my mobo is: asus m5a97 r2.0 and case is Silencio 450 coolermaster (maximum height for custom cpu cooler is 156.5mm / 6.16 inch for fx 8350?

Ty you for your time and please I need concrete answers as much as possible cause my budget is tight atm and I don't want to make a crucial mistake ;)

Hf and ty

ty man but as I can see, Silencio 450 has 156 mm height top, and 212 evo or even thermaltake contact 30 (that I wanted to buy) are to big or am I mistaken?

212 EVO is one of the smallest cooling solutions out there...and it's VERY quiet.

116 x 51 x 159 mm (4.6 x 2.0 x 6.3 in) - 212 EVO - it doesn't fit :(, ok one more thing than:

Which one for fx 8350
a) Hyper TX3
b) Hyper T4
c) Katana 4
