Hi,
I've got the spare parts to build an AMD FX 6300 based PC so I thought why not and am going ahead. My question is what would be an adequate CPU cooler for an FX 6300 CPU running at stock, so not overclocked. The TDP is given as 95W and I have an Akasa 'box' like cooler rated for 95W TDP CPUs lying on a shelf. However I've heard that FX processors run hot so would something else be better or would the Akasa probably be ok at stock?
Regards Steve
