Default Is a TEC cooler worth it to me?
For my E7200 would a TEC cooler be cost effective and could I run on the power supply I already have? If so prices? Install instructions? thanks

No, it's NOT worth it. Upgrade your video card and get a IFX-14 or TRUE or Megahalem and call it a day.

Scythe Mugen 2 is better than the Dark Knight or HDT1283 but the mounting is a little harder. I would get the Dark Knight because it comes with a backplate if you were to get the HDT1283.

If you want to hit middle of the road between air and TEC cooling you could go with an all-in-one liquid cooling kit like the CoolIt Domino or the Corsair H50 that I just ordered today

Do not buy those, high end air cooler beats all in one water cooling. I thought about buying a Coolit Domino ALC but ended up getting a IFX-14.
