Heatsink Suggestion For AM3+

[Carlosinfl]

I'm currently running the stock AMD heat sink on my FX-8350 and realize it's just not cutting it. The system was idle 43-47degrees just in the BIOS and while it's hot here in FL, I know I need something better before I start gaming. Can you guys please throw down some recommendations for me?

Case = Cosiar 750D (Plenty of space)
Budget = ~$75

Any of the AIOs (Corsair is my preference there), or an NT-D14 (I think thats the number?)

Both should fit within $75

Hyper 212 will hit the price and the temps. I bought a used H100i and installed it today. If it ran much cooler on my 8350, running at 4400, I would be checking for failing temps sensors
Seriously, while running Furmark bench mark which also loads the CPU I was sitting at 18 to 20 C.
My Hyper 212 was a great cooler, but now I know what the talk has been about.
Consider the H80i if you can't do the 100. Buy the Hyper if you don't want to run major OC but want a good stable rig for $35.00 or less.
