SB will beat the current AMD offerings IMHO all day long not sure how well the hyper 212 will do on it but its a decent budget cooler til ya can get a d-14 on it

I have a 1100T @ 4 GHZ with the aforementioned board and cooler, works great for gaming! That being said you would be better off with an i3 2300 and eventually upgrading to ivy bridge or a faster SB if all you want to do is game. I run other highly threaded apps, and i did not want to splurge for a 2600k, although it would have been nice to have 8 threads.
