Hello all, I'm looking to replace the stock CPU cooler in my system as I've noticed the running temperature creeping up and the fan is getting louder & louder.

It's to go with
AMD FX4350 AM3+(942) CPU
Gigabyte 970A-DS3P Motherboard

Any suggestions greatly received!

It's always good to replace the stock coolers, but a quick query; when was the last time you cleaned the heat sink and fan assembly thoroughly, and when was the last time fresh thermal paste was applied, and what brand?

Just wondering if maintenance, or pack thereof, could be contributing. Even. New fancy cooler will need a little tlc further down the road.

Good luck!
