A friend offered to buy my heatsink for the price i originally paid. I haven't been happy with it as even with a second fan i didn't get a very noticeable difference from the stock amd heatsink(albeit the nice one with the heatpipes, not the aluminum brick).
this is the heatsink I have=> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835233014
I think a large part of my problem with heatsink is that it can only be oriented to vent out of my PSU, which in my case has a very small bottom fan that is very off center from the cpu cooler.
I have a very strong airflow going across my case to my rear exhaust so i was looking at this similar one that can be oriented towards my rear exhaust=> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835207006
I want to stay around my original $30 price range and I also have a very tall NB cooler and tall RAM, so size is defiantly an issue.
if anyone has any input on the one I'm thinking about or a better suggestion i would appreciate it.
