Default AF 7 or CM 212

So I mentioned to my friend that I wanted to go higher on my CPU, but that my current cooler probably wouldn't let me get that high.
So he offered me his Cooler Master 212 for $15.

Goes for $30 normally, and It's:
CM Hyper 212+ - Great price for damn good HDT cooling. Possibly best bang for buck cooler.



So should I most definitely shout YES YES YES at this?

I don't know for sure, but I would guess that this is a definite yes. Either way, if you get it, then be sure to apply the thermal paste correctly as shown below:

Sweet. I'll probably get this, since it got your OK

And since I'm getting this one... Time to lap the AF 7. Urrah.

Well after all, it's an HDT cooler.
