What kind of cpu cooler should i get?

[David_166]

Hi, Im looking for a good cpu cooler for around £20-£60, can you recommend me any?
*Also I have a pretty small case so I do have much room to fit anything big*

Rig

CPU: Amd athlon x4 860k
Graphics card: r9 270x Oc dual x sapphire
Case: Fractal core 1000
Ram: 8gb

It really depends. Your case can actually accommodate some decent sized coolers - like the Noctua NH-U9S, which would be about the best performing 'air' cooler that'll fit. It should allow a pretty healthy OC if your board is also capable.

If you just need a basic replacement for the stock cooler or for a minimal OC, the Arctic Freezer 7 or 13, or a Cooler Master TX3 are all ~20quid (ish) coolers that'll do the job.
