I am looking for a suitable fan for the following build (I preferably wish to stay away from using water cooled systems ie the Corsair hydro series etc):
Processor: i7 3770k
Motherboard: Asus Z87 Pro
PSU: Corsair 750W
Case: Corsair Carbide 500r
GPU: Nvidia GTX 760

Any help would be much appreciated (and any suggestion of an alternate GPU would be great as I've heard about issues with the GTX 760).

What kind of ram do you have installed? Some coolers may block the ram slots, unless it's low profile ram.

I think I will go for the Noctua model suggested, I had been looking at that one but wanted the final decider. And as far as the graphics card goes, the Gigabyte 4gb GTX 770 model is around the maximum I am willing on a GPU for now so I will take that as a future proofing method for now.

Cheers for the help.

I noticed similarities between your pc build and my planned one, I assume you use your pc for gaming and if so, does the CM hyper evo 212 evo sufficiently deal with the heat produced?
