Hi,
I would like to replace my aging Athlon II X4 630 with a Phenom II X6 1100t. They're starting to disappear from the distribution channels so it's probably now or never. Anyway, I understand that the stock cooler is not good so I plan to replace it with something else. My budget in that regard would be $60 tops. I know I can get the Antec Kuhler 620 or the Corsair H60 for less than that but I have mixed feelings, based on the reviews, about those coolers and how they compare to traditional air coolers. What would be a good air cooler within that price range that would rival the performance/noise of the Antec or Corsair water coolers? Would you actually recommend water over air or viceversa, again within that price range?
Thanks a lot!
