It pretty much is the HDT-S1283, but it's black and sexy. :3

Dark Knight Cost more and its black and has white LEDS. WOW that so sick.Also
Plus hes wants something cheap.
The normal S1283 performs better and is cheap.
So Price/Eye pleasing
You choose
Good luck

Yes I know, it came like 1-3degrees after, but thats because TRUE is like
the best cooler out there but Nirvana is also vry good.
I suggested noctua because it cools VERY good and still very quite and
isn't that expensive and comes with a great fan.
Say what you want but I've tested the noctua on 8 different systems and
I never had any problems and I just love it. Thats why I recommend it.
Regards,
Humper

protip @ op: don't be retarded and buy a super heatsink unless you're planning on doing some ridiculous overclocking.
if your temps are that high at idle, at stock clocks, something is wrong.

The op is planning on doing some overclocking, has unusually high temps and a stock fan. Although the problem is probably just old, dried up thermal compound, getting a decent fan would remedy all three.

Yeah, if he's not going to overclock he better just buy new Thermal compound and remove the old and just reapply the cooler.
I did that on mine (from original compound to btr) on my old comp and it
went from 65@load to 57@load. Which is almost 10degrees just for a new compound and the old one wasn't even old  Just intels shit compound.
(CPU was a E4500 2.2gHz OC to 3.0gHz)

Im not gonna be retarded, but i know something is wrong and i was planning on overclocking. I applied MX-2 and its idleing around 50-56C. Hence thats why im getting the xigmatek, but if it cools it enough im gonna over clock it. I was hoping for around 2.5 or 2.8 maybe even 3 if im stable enough.
Also im not using a stock fan that thing is garbage. Im using that thing from Ibuypower, the AVC heat sink. Yea i know ibuypower eww or whatever but i got this computer when i didn't know much about computers. And as stated before I'm using arctic cooling mx-2 not crust old pre-applied paste.
