I dont see how its such a dud when its HUGE! and 2 120 mm fans? does the heatpipes just not work?
Please suggest me another cooler for this roasting hot B3. Sub `$50
Heres is what i was considering
Freezer 7 PRO
Newegg.com - ARCTIC COOLING Freezer 7 Pro 92mm CPU Cooler - Retail
Scythe ninja
Newegg.com - Scythe SCNJ-1100P 120mm Sleeve CPU Cooler - Retail
Zero Therm
Newegg.com - ZEROtherm BTF90 92mm Silent UFO CPU Cooler - Retail
Not a one of those is going to handle a quadcore OC'd.
Get a Thermalright Ultra-120Extreme, you wont be disappointed.
