Xigma and Vendetta will fit perfectly in your case both are very good price performance

I'd get the Thermolab Bada if I were you. I'm pretty pleased with my Baram and Thermolab is a quality company imo.

Pop on this Sanyo Denki San Ace 92mmx38mm fan undervolt it to 5v or 7v (63dBa is just ridic). You'll have really cold temps.

K, a less absurd fan rec would be this: Zalman ZM-F2. The 120mm version is highly respected and liked, so I'd imagine this one would be quite good as well.

my board havent option in bios but easytune6 runs great, control perfect min and max in windows, and katana 3 in full load maybe noise.

And the gunmet cold the chip Nb and is silent?
Therma Big typ?

Im very fan pc no noise and xig and vendetta 1500rpm 120mm in full load to noise for me.

Ninja 2 150mm high, 120mm fan a 1000rpm and option to put 2 fan, air flow >> ><

The Thermolab Bada I linked to before is a 92mm cooler and should fit in your case. If you still can't get that one then I'd say the Scythe Ninja 2 though I have pretty much 0 experience with those coolers. Scythe Ninja 2 I've heard of before in a favorable light, so I'll say that, lol.

Yes. I can change the speed on my Xigmatek cooler just fine with it.

Finally i will get a scythe andy samurai master.
Yea 125mm high, perfect for my case and my 80mm lateral fan.

I like this cooler because have a fan 120mm 1200rpm and 125mm high and is very big.
With this cooler i will not lose my lateral fan,very important for a good air flow.
And the cooler can get cold air.
