Just assembled my new workstation pc.

I took a gamble on the stock AMD cooler in order to keep the build down on cost, but the stock fan is a tad... terrible. :rolleyes:

Also needs to fit in this case.

Any cheap but still good/quite coolers recommended?

what's youre budget? are you planning on overclocking?

you have 160mm cooler height so you could get the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo in there as that comes in at 159mm and sells for £29.99

there is a few cheaper options but the Evo gets a good name for its self at the price.

The Hyper 212 Evo is ok but not so great value as it once was. A cheaper option that performs about the same:

Should easily fit in your case too (only 136mm tall). Either should be able to handle a mild/mid OC (est 4.0-4.4), for 4.5+ you may need something a bit beefier but its likely to cost twice as much.
