Hello can anyone help me I've been looking around forums and websites and people recommend using liquid cooling.I'm on a budget and if not necessary I would like to use the 9370 without liquid cooling if you have to use liquid cooling can anyone recommend and am3+ CPU under £200 because liquid cooling is expensive and as I said I'm on a budget

Any respone would be appreciated

Get an 8320 or 8350. Stay away from the 9xxx series. Yes, you need water cooling with them. They run hot. Very hot. They are also only compatible with a few different motherboard that can put out the power and deal with the heat they put out.
