I want a cooler for my fx-8320 that is silent but cools well due to the
stock cooler sounding like a jet engine.
my case only supports coolers with a maximum height of 156mm.

specs:
case: cmp-102
MB: asus m5a99x evo r2.0
cpu: Fx-8320
RAM:kingston 8 gb

my ram is not higher then any normal ram.

I've looked at a couple coolers like

zalman cnps9900max-b
tuniq 120
and some others.

thank you for anything helpful advice you might have
:)
 
Solution
Get the Corsair H80i Liquid CPU cooler. It's got 3 settings: silent, balanced and performance which can be changed with the click of a button. It has a 120mm radiator (which you can fit on as an exhaust), and 2 SP120 's which are corsair's best CPU cooler fans.

Solution
I have heard that the corsair liquid coolers are great but I don't think I'll get one for two reasons: it's out of my price range I would like a cooler under 60$
And there is always the chance for a leak which will dry my computer which I have spent slot of money on.

Any other suggestion will be most welcome, most likely an air cooler will be what I decide
