i have the same processor as yours
i recommend http://www.ebuyer.com/264011-corsair-hydro-series-h60-high-performance-liquid-cpu-cooler-cwch60
easy to fit in and so far working great and quit
also i know its around £61 but you probably spent alot on other parts may as well save up and try this.
btw i have mine at factory clock not going to overclock even though the cpu temp is 27.c with several items loaded up

That is more than 3 times the OP’s budget!
If your going to spend that much more, just get an i7 =/
2500K will get to 4.5 with no problem with the CM Hyper 212 Plus.

Oh dont worry then thanks anyway
Answer #12
CM 212+ or EVO (though difference is not big)
Where I live (no where close to you), the corsair A70 regularly goes on for $30 (approx. 22 Euros). Great steal if you could get it for that little
