Question Artic Cooling 7 Pro?

Ok...I searched this forum and read many reviews and thoughts on the Artic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro... Most say it is a good, cheap HSF that does an OK job. I wanted to know if it would be enough to keep an E2200 overclocked to 3ghz cooled(Motherboard is Asus P5N-E). If not can you recommend me something that could? Thanks

It is an amazing budget CPU cooler. I had one, and I must say, it did a great job.

And it should be fine for keeping your CPU cool at 3ghz.

Ok, Cool Thanks Is there much of a difference between E2200 and E4500? Not sure if i should have gotten the E4500...and been asking myself why i didnt for a while. I just want to make sure i made a good choice in getting E2200 (which was like $40 cheaper)

My opinion its not worth the money difference because there is minimal gain. Even the e2160 to e2200 is minimal

I also use the AF7 and its great, keeps my e2160 @ 3.2 with 1.3625v under 55 load. You will love it and it wont break the bank

Ps fill out your specs under the user cp button, it makes things easier
