Core2 Duo E8200 vs Athlon II X4 635 - Need For Speed GTX 980 - Game Performance Benchmarks

Intel Core 2 Duo E8200 Fan ReplacementHi All, Sorry if this has been asked before...I'm a newby here. I have a heatsink fan going bad for this processor and need to replace it asap as it's on my business machine. Can someone recommend a heatsink/fan replacement unit I can use to swap out without too much trouble? Any assist will be appreciated!!!!

Buy another stock cooler or an aftermarket unit like the Cooler Master TX3 Evo that's as easy to install as the stock cooler.

Current AMD equivalent of Core2Duo E8200Currently I'm still rocking this "ancient" processor overclocked to 3.6Ghz (And is still ok with it's performance.). Still though I wouldn't expect this comp to run much longer, so I'm currently looking for an AMD processor that matches its performance but actually capable of overclocking. I think that the current i-series do not support any kind of overclocking and the current available, unlocked i7-4770K processor in our local is very very much out of my price range ($350) .The highest priced AMD processor available in my price range is the A10-5800K ($127) but sadly I wasn't able to find any specific comparisons as the generation gap between the two processors is quite huge.There's also the FX-6100 which has similar price which I think is a bad idea because I think this processor is not the most recent in this price range.

I'd get the FX4300, FX6300, or if budget is a real issue, an Athlon 760K.
