Spec me a cooler?

[joem1983]

Hi guys.

really cant decide on a CPU cooler.

Was looking at the silver arrow but looks as if it may be too big (height over 160mm) for my fractal design core 3000 case...

Unsure if the water based CPU coolers at my price point of £50 will cool an i5 2500k towards high 4ghz mark.

What is the best air cooler for under £50 that isnt totally massive?

thanks!

I have the cooler in the above link and its amazing and will definitely get you to/past
the 4Ghz mark on the i5

May be too high. I've taken a measurement and seems the 160mm is maximum.

Should have bought the fratal midi. oh well
