Need a good AMD cooler

Hi,

As the title states, I'm looking for a cooler for my AMD computer.

The socket type is AM3.

I've looked on Newegg and only found a couple small sized fans.

I did find this one (and I've used this one for my last build socket LGA 775)

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835186134

but I've seen many bad reviews for using with AMD processors.


So I figured I'd appeal to as many people as I can to see what people think and suggest since this is my first AMD build.
 
@Bacon:
I would rather not spend over 50 bux if I can help it. That said, though, I want to make sure my processor will last as long as possible so even 100 bux in the short term is better than having to replace my processor in a year.

@FuryRosewood:
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll look into that one more...I didn't read the reviews on it yet.

@Aastii:
Thanks for the links but neither of the Rifle coolers have AM3 socket listed as compatible (although they look like they could cool my system very well)

Click to expand...

They list AM2, which IIRC has the exact same mounting system as AM3.
 
I've used the Arctic Cooling Freezer 64 cooler on my last 2 builds-overclocked both of them and never seen temp over 44 during normal usage-Running current build at 3.6 when needed and is real quiet.
 
@VoyagerFan99:
That looks beast but I'm not a fan of the blue leds...I don't really need my computer glowing lol

@Craneop1985:
I think I'll be going with that one. I've liked Artic Cooling in the past and I think I'll stay with them.

Thanks for all the help everyone!
