Greetings fellas,
i have i7-3770 with stock cooling. normal temp is at 45-50 C .... when i try to play the game on emulator, the temp pumps to 80-85 C
also the RAM usage is at 96% ... now i want to use the same heat sink but with a different high rated air flow fan because i want it to be cheaper as i guess the heat sink with fan is more expensive...what are your suggestion for quite good fans on my own heatsink to reduce temp from 80-85 C to like 70-79 C ?

My rig: Windows 7-64bit (ligit)
CPU: i7-3770
GPU: GTX 1650S
RAM: corsair vengeance 8gb 2x4gb ddr3
Mobo: Msi Z77A-G43
PSU: Cool Master B700 ver.2
