Low profile for q9550

[TechManiac96]

Hello, 

I'm doing a cheap upgrade of a very very old machine for someone. Trying to keep costs low, changed the ram, hhd to an ssd, put a small graphics card in instead of using on board graphics. I'm also changing cpu. I'm changing from a e8500 to a q9550 and need a new cpu cooler to handle the additional cores. It also needs to be max height of 79mm. Any suggestions? 

Thanks and kind regards, 

James
