Quiet CPU cooler for simple office tasks

Lagerall1

Im searching for a cooler for my moms office-pc. She is still running the boxed one on her i5-750 (non oc'ed ofc)and now i think the time has come where this loud little thing must get switched. The performance doesnt matter at  all i would say but it should be as quiet as possible and around 20€ (~25$).

 

Sry for possible faults in my writing...not a native speaker ^^

The Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro is a good cooler for lowe power CPUs. It's quiet and compact, as well as cheap and pretty much perfect for office use. If you can get a Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO for the same price and space isn't a constraint then go for that instead.

 

Edit: if you need a low profile downdraft cooler I have a Scythe Big Shuriken 2 that runs really quiet on my Core i3 550. I recommend it for a compact cooler.

Hyper 212 Evo. It's overkill, but it's cheap enough that there's no point suggesting anything else.

Exactly

Great cooler at a great price and with a proper fan curve can be almost silent

Space is not a problem. The arctic one looks pretty appealing to me at this price point might stick with that.

I Try to cramp the more expensive Evo one in her build. If that wont work ill take the Freezer 7 instead..
