Hi, your Kuhler H2O 620 is not performing well anymore. It was kept at a steady 4.4 Ghz and 1.44 volts, but now temperatures have risen significantly. I’m looking for the most affordable CPU cooler that can maintain stability around 4.5 Ghz.

Cryorig H7 seems to be fine.

Recomendação, mas está em 60$ na Amazon e no mesmo preço na Newegg. O modelo não RGB está esgotado. Apenas há uma diferença de 2 graus entre o cryorig e o Hyper 212. Não acho sensato gastar mais 30 dólares por aquele pequeno ajuste. Então, melhor esperar que chegue ao estoque na Newegg ou comprar um Hyper 212.

Here’s a revised version of your text:

The recommendation is good, but it costs $60 on Amazon and the same on Newegg. The non-RGB model is currently out of stock. There’s only a 2-degree variation between the Cryorig and Hyper 212. I don’t think I’ll pay an extra $30 for just 2 degrees. So I’ll either wait for it to be available on Newegg or opt for a Hyper 212.

Don’t compare the 85W CPU from 4770K with the FX-8150 at 125W. When overclocked to 4.2Ghz, the former generates 100–120W of heat. The FX-8150 OC should produce more than 150W. The temperature difference won’t be just 2°C; it’ll likely be 10°C or more.

There’s already a 6°C gap between the Cryorig H7 and Hyper 212 when running at 4.2Ghz. Expect even bigger differences with higher overclocking.
You might want to try Thermalright Macho instead. It performs better than the Cryorig H7 and is more affordable, selling for $40–50 on Amazon. Newegg prices are usually quite high (over $100).
