Well I haven't used it on an AMD but as far as coolers go, in that price range my humble suggestion would be to go for one of these bud
ARCTIC COOLING Freezer 7
XIGMATEK HDT
and my personal fav when Air cooling
Enzotech Extreme-X

Well, for me I'd advise against it man. As you will read there is nothing quite like a decent water loop. I almost went this route when I wanted to WC. My advice bud is to just take the plunge. It's not that hard to water cool as long as you keep it simple . I mean I have never used it and it gets decent reviews, but I am always wary of some reviewers personally.

The Hyper 212 is very close in design to the HDT-S1283, and will perform about the same. A 92mm cooler like the Freezer 7 will be nowhere close in performance to either of those coolers. With todays hot CPU's, I personally wouldn't recommend a top down type cooler. The tower coolers are designed to blow the hot air toward an exhaust fan, which will remove the heat from the case, instead of blowing it toward the mobo.

I would guess the 212+ would be better than the 1283 since it's a 4 heatpipe cooler compared to 3 heatpipes on the 1283.

I use it, works very well, completely satisfied. CoreTemp shows my 620 (Oc'ed to 3.35) at around 38c, Gigabyte Easytune shows at 43c. That's in an old Antec SX1030 case with not great cooling. You can strap on 2 fans on it as well, which I would do. Two Yate Loon Medium's give a good balance of noise/performance. Dropped 3c on full load after adding a second one.
