Cooler for AMD Phenom II X4 810? Under 40$?

Hi, so I decided that I need to OC my CPU and I've read that overclock from 2.6Ghz to 3.6Ghz and that's a huge difference, however I need a better cooler than my stock one.

I was looking at these two - zalman CNPS5X-Performa and Cooler Master Hyper TX3.

It's hard to find a cooler because some say that zalman is bad, some say cooler master tx3 is bad so I can't decide which to take or maybe are there other coolers around?

 

I probably need to decrease 10-15

coolermaster hyper 212+evo $25

 

can't go wrong with that.

 

holds my 4ghz i5-760 on 60c using gaming (no matter how long i play it)

i've had the tx3 and the hyper212+evo shaves off a nice 7 to 10c off that tx3, so get that hyper 212+ its a beast.

 

from stock cooler to the hyper212 it was around 25c decrease in temps, for reference material :)

well it doesnt really matter anyway, just buy the hyper 212 and your golden.

its the cheapest best cooler you're gonna get for that bang for buck.

Cheapest I can find is on ebay but that's 60-70 bucks including shipping. Same with amazon I think.
