Hey, I'm new to these forums. I'm not to great with hardware so I've got a few questions.

Would a Noctua NH-U9B SE2 fit with my AMD FX-4100 Quad Core Processor & Gigabyte GA-880GM-USB3 Motherboard? My case is Cooler Master Elite 430.

Here is the specs of the case

Also would it good a good job of cooling my CPU? As I currently have the AMD stock fan my motherboard is averaging at 45c.

If it wouldn't fit or be worth the money, Could you advise me on which fan to buy? Thanks a lot.

It should be fit by fine. That airflow should be point to exhaust airflow by rear fan. It work really good as i have done that before.

There is one problem, it might will take two of RAM slot. So you will want to move RAM onto white slot, not blue.

Here is picture in my old post of how i put my heatsink on my computer and find post by me.

My Noctua NH-D14 goes OVER two of my RAM slots, but I have corsair vengence low profile so it works ok. I assume it would be the same for you.
