Hi everyone!

I need a new CPU Cooler (air or liquid) for a low price ( between 30 and 70 Euros).

I have an Enermax Chakra case and a FX-8320.

I searched a bit and i found: 

 

-Air cooling-

Noctua NH-L12

CM Hyper 212 EVO

 

-Liquid Cooling-

Corsair H55

Corsair H60

CM Seidon 120M

Antec H2O 620

 

I want to know what cooler of these is the best and what could fit into my case!

 

I' m not going for overclock!

If you can afford those AIO coolers, the Noctua NH-D14

If you have more money to spend buy a NH-D14, but if you want to save money the Hyper 212 Evo is a very good choice.

hyper212 evo, its £30 and performs 95% as well as an nh-d14 (ask other 8320 owners) and costs less than half, if your not overclocking then its perfect, add in a fan speed reducer IF you want silence.

usually within a few degrees, i only have the 212+ but im oc'd to 3.7 on 1.4v and though i dont have a temp reading (unlocked) it only gets luke warm when folding for a few hours, in gaming its still fairly cool, i tested an am2 vs am3 (like yours) vs cheap lower end am3+ cooler on an fx4100 stress testing and none went above 62 degrees c
