CPU Cooler

[summers]

I am building a new PC for moderate gaming and home use.

CPU : AMD FX-6300
Mobo : MSI 990FX - GD65
RAM : Corsair Vengeance 1600 (4GB x 2)

I am planning to buy CM Hyper 212X. Will it have any RAM clearance issue on this motherboard. Are there any better CPU coolers than this. Budget 3K.

Please suggest.

For 3K get CM Hyper 212 EVO. That is the best for this budget.

go ahead with 212x. it might block one of the ram slots, but you have 4 under the hood. make sure your cabinet is big enough to accommodate big cpu coolers like 212x. else you will have to live with a fully transparent cabinet .
