Hello people,
I have a PC with a Gigabyte P35-DS4 and an Intel Xeon X5460 CPU @3.33GHz on it cooled with a Coolermaster Ri5-8idse-x2-gp Skt775 Cooler which is this one and it comes also with his backplate:

But unfortunely the cooler isn't very good and my Xeon is reaching 70ºC under full load at stock speed even with new AS5 thermal paste applied and also it's very noisy so I need a replacement for this cooler because this one obviously sucks. The point is that I don't want to disassemble all the PC including removing the motherboard just for this and since this cooler already have its backplate which I installed on the back of the motherboard, I'm kindly asking you if there is any good CPU cooler that can be installed on my PC using the backplate of this Coolermaster and that way avoiding to have to remove the motherboard from the PC Case? What's your advise?
Thank you in advance.
With the best regards,
