Okay so i have managed to find an i5 3550 which was an absolute steal on Ebay. Didn't think i'd actually win the auction. Cost me around £70 including delivery or something. Anyway i've taken the initiative and decided to not risk running it on the cooler i'm using on my i3, since that cooler came off a Pentium G2030 originally so it's an old stock thing. Tiny heatsink and fan, surprised the bearings in the fan itself haven't gone pop yet. Seeing as how the wattage difference between the i3 and Pentium are marginal i didn't see the point in changing it then. Anyway i was looking at a silent/low profile cooler, any recommendations? i've used Artic cooling systems for years. (Currently my front, rear and side case fans, just because they have 12 blade designs which run virtually silent). I was looking at this Even though it might be a tad over the top for an i5. But id rather the cooler was too good and kept the temperature as low as possible than get one that scrapes the margin and lets the thing hit 65C or something....
