hey guys, ive read a few threads about how much heat is generated when you are running an amd 8 core cpu when loaded and/or overclocked. Im planning on getting an amd 8320, overclocking it to the speed of an 8350 (at least), and i am looking for cooling solutions. it will be loaded on a daily basis with after effects and maya and gaming (occaisionally) on ultra settings. I'm looking at a corsair h60 (about $50 on amazon atm) which i would run in push-pull. is the corsair h60 going to cut it?! i want to stay around that price range but i dont want to kill my cpu. Also, if this does work, what fans should i get? im looking to not spend a huge amount on fans.
thanks to your guys' help, i chose a different case which should be better for airflow, and have opted to spend the extra money on the corsair h100i. Although it pushes me slightly over budget, it should be worth it, insuring the longetivity of my CPU (and my house for that matter lol).
