Ba1k3n Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I'm upgrading a toaster PC into a gaming tower and due to unforseem events I had to change out my motherboard a bit earlier than planned.Last Motherboard was OEM new motherboard is an MSI 970 Gaming Motherboard and my old CPU fan just won't fit. My questions is, what is a good CPU fan that is in the 50-100 dollar range and will fit on the board? My CPU is an AMD Athlon II. Thank you for any help.

Coaster Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I am running an 8350 with a Noctua NH-D14. This unit will fit on an AM2 to AM3 socket. I don't remember which socket an Athlon II uses, but I think it is AM2. This is a big unit, but it fits nicely on my Gigabyte motherboard, and it really cools down my CPU. It is also cheap, comparatively, I think I paid $80 CDN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
