i brought a case cooler for my antec cube and while i was at the shop i was looking at heatsink coolers that are flat, but ones i saw were for intel..
now my cpu cooler isnt intrusive, its perfect for where it sits as you can see in the pic
and although i havent seen system temps above 41'c yet nor the cpu itself (only installed 2 programs and ran ccleaner) and i havent install the case cooler yet either, after seeing the flat coolers i feel if i had one i could probably generate better cooling round the case especially when i get a gpu as its got mediocre airflow now nevermind a obstructive pci/gpu card..
so as the title says really, what would be good options??
edit: i forgot to add, this board supports overclocking and i know this cpu is good for overclocking to an extent even with stock cooler from what ive read online, so i will want to have alittle play with it as ive never overclocked before, so if i do change heatsink, will need to be sufficient also.
