OK Guys, I've got a fun problem for you all...
I got 50 bucks in an eBay gift card for my birthday yesterday, so I've got enough money for a microphone and a new HSF.
I've got a Phenom 9950 so it's gotta be AM2+ compatible.
I need a mic (Zalman clippy mic?)

Catch:
Under $50 shipped...

What HSFs am I looking at?
 
eBay? Have you considered the added shipping costs?

Check out FrostyTech to get some ideas as to which CPU cooler you should get, could afford or both.
 
Zalman clip mic is excellent.

As for HSF... Do you need one? It's only AMD after all... lol. Unless youre CPU didn't come with stock HSF?

Also when you choose the HSF, remember that your case is an SFF. Be sure to have enough space as HSF like Xigmatek S1283 can be quite large.

Exactly, my friend just got an S1283 for his full tower and it's almost pressing against his case window, lol.
I've got the stock BE cooler with Diamond 7 paste, but it's still going up to 57c at full load... Which is really high..
I'd like to be able to OC it to 3.0, but with temps as high as they are now.. eh..

Anyway, i'm in the process of purchasing a Thermaltake Lanbox (Not LITE, the one with a huge handle on the top) and wanted to know the clearance on that thing.
My microfly literally had all the case panels fall off it going back to my car from a lanparty this weekend, lol.
It's held together with tape :p bad airflow i'm sure.
 
Here's a decent low-profile HSF: the Scythe Shuriken.
I've been looking lots at the Shuriken, and honestly, it's terrible. I've read you have to change out the fan just to get better performance than the stock AMD HSF.. Not going to say what i'm bidding on right now, but it's a very good price for what i'm getting.
