i am open to getting it from amazon or newegg but prefer amazon as i am from singapore, could get it locally if i can find it. Budget about $50 usd to $80 usd? Not looking into watercooling. Thanks!

Cheap : (http://www.newegg.com/global/sg/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835186134)

Good : (http://www.newegg.com/global/sg/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835608018)

 

Also for people posting in here, USD to SGD is x1.5.

 

 

Not to mention that the newegg lineup we have for Singapore is terrible.

Just take a look at this page, no EVO 212s.

Correct me if am wrong. Can a lga 1155 socket cpu fan work for lga 1151 aka skylake mobo? Thank you. Saw a noctua D14 for $80sgd on a second hand site might get that if i go for noctua fan.

If the mounting equipment is untouched, yes.

 

But beware of second hand stuff, the mounting gear might be missing.

-EDIT-

 

1155 1151 has the same mounting hardware.

New products should have warranty that covers the international side.

 

Second hand products might have them, but things like e-receipt and serial numbering is required for them to evaluate your warranty status.

Would you have any price lists for local shops you can link us to? 

Also for people posting in here, USD to SGD is x1.5.

Not really relevant since pricing varies in different areas.

Mounting hardware for all 115x sockets are the same.

The NH-D14 would be a good option.

Singapore pricing is another thing, we have items that are literally exactly 1.5 without shipping.

Is there a cheaper one? if i get the nh-d14 i would rather pay $20 usd more for a h100i

Why? They perform similarly but the NH-D14 is quieter.

The fan on the stock heatsink and any fan mentioned in this threads consumes a negligible amount of power if you're worried about power consumption.  

If you're just curious, I'd reckon it's 1-3w.
