Hi guys,
Which is the best and the cheapest cpu cooler for Core 2 Duo E8400 @ stock clocks?


Thanks in advance

Best and cheapest just don't compute. The cheapest is far from the best, and the best is anything but cheap. Do you have a price range?

As to an actual recommendation, I've had good luck with the cooler master hyper TX3, I think it's socket 775 compatible and only costs $20.

I dont need a high end one,So i need a cheaper one but better than the Intel's Stock HSF which keeps the cpu temps below 50 @load and (I think u got my price range from this)and also 20 $ is ok!

Mugen2, 130+watt TDP, performs equal to the CM V8
