That would be fine for your new X2 CPU

Or even cheaper

For a X2 CPU, your probably gonna be ok with just about anything bigger than the stock cooler so take your pick from the above, they'll all work fine

(Don't forget thermal paste)

what is that and does it come with cooler?

See here for a detailed explanation: http://en.wikipedia..../Thermal_grease, but in short, it is used to assist the heat sink in drawing heat away from the CPU.

Most aftermarket heatsinks come with thermal paste/grease/compound pre-applied :) It might be a good idea to just buy a small tube for future use, if you plan on changing your CPU later on - products from Noctua or Arctic Silver are good.
