Hi there,
I'm in the market for a cooler for my FX-6300. I'm looking to do a fairly heavy overclock (4.5 with possibly more in the future) and am concerned the 212 might hold me back so I was looking for the next step up from the EVO.
Looking around, the most common recommendation seems to be the Noctua NH-D14, but this seems like a big leap. Is there anything that falls between these two coolers?
I'm fine with spending $50-75.
Thanks for any info!
Also, if the 212 EVO is capable of keeping up with a heavy overclock on the 6300 then let me know. I'd just rather spend the extra bucks to be on the safe side if I can.
