Hi guys I'm just wondering I have an older computer case made in 2012. At the time this case on only has a bottom front and top back fan slot and including a single side one. So i'm looking into getting a great single fan radiator for my amd cpu. I want to know what is the best kind and the best one too!

I have the h80i myself, and am happy with it.

But if i didn't have a window, i would have went with something like the dark rock pro 3 for almost the same price instead. (it performs better and doesn't have a pump making a slight noise)

 

Can we have your system specs?

When in doubt: C4

Nice, well my current specs are:
Asrock Extreme3 970 r1.0

AMD FX-8150 3.6ghz turbos/OC to 4.2ghz on its own.

8gb wintec ram 1600mhz with heat sinks

AMD R9 290 4gb RC

750watt psu

 

Corsair H55 for top back. Cooled my 8350 at 4.2Ghz at 45* for over a year.

Nice!

 

Edit:

I also have plans sometime soon/or next year to get a new case with better air flow and ability to add a dual fan radiator on top like something like this case right here: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811156321
