Cooler for an old system

[Ahmad96Ragab]

I had an older AMD FM2+ system, A6-6400K APU with a GA-F2A55M-HD motherboard and 4GB of 1600mhz DDR3 RAM. Barely touched it since I built my new Ryzen system.
My little cousin asked if she could have it, and I didn't really mind. I took the case out and cleaned it up and ran CoD:BO2 multiplayer to check the system.

The system shut itself down 5 minutes into the game.

I opened it again and ran HWMonitor to check the temperature of the CPU, IT WAS AT 102°C IDLE . . . 

I raised the curve of the fan speed to the max, and it barely got under 99°C.

I noticed that the stock cooler was spinning slowly. I thought it was dust, so I took it out cleaned it even more and replaced the thermal compound on it and on the CPU.
Nothing changed.
The temps remained the same, and the system kept on shutting down not long into any game.
 

So, it's obvious I need a new cooler, but the problem is I noticed that the motherboard doesn't have mounting holes in the back for a back bracket for any of the coolers available for me right now.

The available coolers in vendors near me are CRYORIG H7 and Cooler Master Hyper 212 Turbo.
I just need someone to confirm if any of these coolers would fit in this motherboard, and if not, what other coolers would you suggest or recommend for it.

I had a FX8350 + gb motherboard with a Hyper 212 for about two years. It was clocked at 4,6-4,8 and worked good. The 212 came with it's own mounting plate so it didn't require the motherboard original ones that came included. It should work.

 

But IMO that temperature points more toward a problem with the CPU or the motherborad itself.. did you double check them in bios instead of using a software?

I am no cooling expert, but a Hyper Evo 212 should be good. Turbo, LED whatever of those should suffice. I have a 212 Evo with my g3258 running at 3.8Ghz and 1.295V (Override voltage) and the system idles at 34C and when stressed at 63-65C. Very cooler than intel's stock heatsink that when on load it reached 83C

This remembers me of my moms laptop. When refurbishly buyed, I opened Speecy and saw that it was running at 98C but the cpu was very cool. I downloaded HWmonitor and the motherboard temps was actually the cpu temp . This happened to me with a AMD A10-7300 cpu. Maybe the real temps are motherboards one? Maybe that happened because it is a laptop. IDK.

H7 would be better pick. More so if its cheaper. It will most definitely fit case and RAM since its smaller than 212.
