Best $53 Heatsinks

[meowmix44]

I want a good heatsink as my Modded Freezer 13 Pro is achieving 66C under load with Prime 95
My CPU is a 2600K@4.4GHz

Thats a decent enough load temp I think, dont see any need to change it.

IMO, mid-range cooling isn't worth it. Its poor value against low end coolers like the 212 EVO, and its not much cheaper than high end coolers. I would wait till you can afford to spend ~$80 and get a Noctua NH-D14 or similar high end cooler.

Noctua NH-D14 < A cooling beast.
