i have a amd barton 2600+ i want to overclock it any one has any idea what cooler or heatsink i should get
it would be great if it is under 50 bucks and very quite
 
SI-97

Nexus 92m or Nexus 120mm

and I'm sure you can find those parts at cheaper prices elsewhere, too, just hunt around. You can use a 120mm fan on the SI-97, it overlaps a little, but it helps keep air on the heatpipes and northbridge. A 92mm works well too (I had the Nexus 92mm on my SI-97 before moving it to my PSU and the 120mm to the SI-97)

If you undervolt those fans to 7v, you have a quiet setup that can't be beat.
 
?

I'd get the SI-97 I linked to (it's just a heatsink) and one of the two fan's I linked to, and put them together. It'll be quiet, and effective.

It'll keep your components cooler and quieter than a stock cooler (if that's what you have now and are looking to upgrade from).
