Well, the title says it all
I need a new CPU Cooler, and have about £50-60 to spend. I am currently using an OCZ Vendetta, which suits my purposes, but my sister's E5300 runs really loud (and she wants a relatively quiet pc), and so Ive decided that I'd be better off getting a new fan for myself and giving the Vendetta to her.
I have looked at 2 in particular -
Corsair Hydro H50
Coolermaster V8
I considered the corsair mainly because my PSU is not brilliant with respect to cable length so my insides are horrifcly cluttered up. The Vendetta has done a solid job thus far, but I'd like something with a bit more grunt, so I can overclock my Q9450 (I now have a Foxconn Blackops Mobo and so I now also have the capability to overclock significantly.)
Which one is better? are there any alternatives in that price range that will be reasonably quiet / ridiculously powerful?
