The Hyper 6 is better than Hyper 48, but its bit heavier than hyper 48.

Orelse u can buy Hyper L3@1700/- from
therespawn.com

The best u can get for 3k is hyper 6. Along with a gud thermal paste, u can achieve much higher oc.

But you will not get TRUE in kolkata..........u'll have to order it from PRIME (mumbai) or buy online from sidewindercomputers. I myself have bought Enzotech Ultra-X and it gives damn good performance...........mine E4300 @ 3.4GHz has load temps of 61C with orthos running for 1 hour.

I have thermalright Ultra 120 extreme and its an excellent cooler.Keeps my CPU Cores at 28C idle and 44C on load with orthos after 30minutes @3.001Ghz.
I bought it from prime ABGB via email conversation.

Price is Rs2650 and u'll need to buy a 120mm fan.
