Soo i was just wondering whether or not to keep my stock fan in my budget gaming PC. the thing is, my budget is 500 and would not really want to go over it and the problem is.,,, I have by a teeny bit, and so i was just wondering would it be fine to be running games like rust, Dayz , league of legends etc without my CPU dying of the heat using the stock fan, FX-6300 btw (http://www.newegg.com/global/uk/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819113286) i am not much of a person to reduce all graphics to play some games because i like to see the look of thing (just my opinion) but i would not realisticly put anything on insane quality just the normal setting.

heres my build if you want to look at it tell me if there is any better components at better prices or just note me of any error i made in my build, i preferably use new egg and Amazon

UK, around 500 pounds budget, gaming PC, and if theres any information you may want about my build or anything much i will try to give you the answer to them

thanks :D

Edit: i will not be doing any overclocking what so ever

The fan might start to sound like a jet if it starts to get toasty, but they do work great for stock.

I can't tell if you've got the 6300 already or not but I'd recommend the i3 4330 (or i3 4000+, the difference isn't huge). For most games I'd think the i3 would perform better if you're not overclocking.

 

P.S. Another vouch for stock fans are fine in your case (hue hue hue).
