Im also open to suggestions, though I do not want the hyper 212 line since ive already owned one and while they are great on a budget, they arent ultra high end. My budget is capped at around 65$.
 
I thought you were going to watercool your rig? :hmm: Anyway, I'll pick any of the Cooler Master's you've listed.

I was going to WC, but then my build got a little more expensive (1920X1080p monior) so I dont have as much in my budget as I would have liked. Is there any one in particular? The 812 or 612?

How about a Corsair H60?

Or Tuniq Tower 120 Extreme $55 AR?

The Zalman coolers look very awesome though

The zalman coolers look amazing, and that tuniq tower looks very good too, but I did my research and the 812 is one of the best coolers out there so I think i will be going with that.

I would go with the 612 and get a better pair of fans with the price difference for a push pull configuration.

I read the 612 is a bigger looking 212 and performs similarly (around V6 performance) so I think I will be getting the 812.

Thanks for the help everyone, ill report temps when I get it since my friend has a 212 evo I can compare it to.
 
I have the CM TPC 812 on a 3770k (not OCed yet) and really like it, but I have no comparison as this was my first build. May not matter to you, but the install was VERY easy and all mounted up in about 5 min.

Temps are good:

Idle: 29C
Gaming Max: 37C
Prime95 Max: 45C
