for reference, ambient temperature atm is about 89 degress f atm (31.6 celcius) and my cpu(i3-2120) is currently idling at ~40 degrees celcius with stock cooler with a moderately well ventilated case(4 120mm fans, mesh sidepanel) load is probably 10-15 delta T

Please learn to use periods.

Since you cant overclock your cpu, i wouldn't waste money on a aftermarket cpu unless you have heat problems. So i suggest you construct your rig and then run some stress tests on it. If the temps are too high, then get a cpu cooler.

Since you can't overclock on the 3470 you should go with probably a Hyper 212 evo.

Those are two different people?

Also, I disagree with your recommendation on the 212 EVO. I'd recommend it if the OP were overclocking; since he's not able to, there's no need for an aftermarket CPU cooler unless he uses the stock one and isn't happy with it's heat dissipation / noise level.

There should be no need for an aftermarket cooler. My other PC with an i5 2400 idles at 35-42 depending on the season, but it still rarely breaks 80+ C in heavier loads. Just make sure you have good airflow

The stock fan will do a good job, but I recommended the 212 because I feel he was hell bent on buying a new one.

Only upgrade if you don't feel comfortable with the temps.

In that case, yes. The 212 is a great cooler, especially for the money
