recommended cooler for a few months... (dont want to spend much) will be installing watercooling system once my budget allows it.

will be oc'ing i5 2500k so need something reliable
 
Just got a Thermalright MUX-120 black. Still have to put it through its paces.

For £30, really nice quality though, although the fan looks cheap (compared to a Akasa Apache, but that's a very high quality fan!). The mounting brackets have a nice heft, while the cooler is not very heavy, sexy looks, very thin and good RAM clearance, and apparently good performance (similar or slightly better than the Tranquillo / A50) and silent. Should be an interesting test! :D

I'm expecting an easy 4.4/4.6GHz overclock.
