What is a decent heat sink for AMD AM3+ need one for my AMD FX 6300 it tends to run quite warm and i would like to overclock, not really wanting a water cooler.

A Cooler Master Hyper 212+ will be great. Supports a mild overclock, cools good, and is cheap.

I have the Hyper N520 myself and like it a lot.

The N520 actually cools a fair bit worse than the Hyper 212 and costs more, which is why I don't recommend it.
