Need CPU Cooler for i5 3570k

Hello I am looking to spend about 50 dollars on a CPU Cooler. It has to be an air cooler, I am looking to OC if possible, you can see my specs by hovering over my avatar. My ram doesn't have large heatsinks to worry about either standard hyper x. My case is Azza Solano 1000R. Thanks.

This, I've put this cooler in multiple builds for friends, and the temps are only a few degrees hotter than my liquid cooling (My liquid cooled has a higher OC though.). You could probably get something like a 4.2 ghz overclock with the 212 EVO and 3570k, with decent air flow that is.

Zalman? What is this 2003?

The Hyper 212 Evo is the go-to air cooler for around $40 and the Noctua NH-C14 or NH-D14 if you want to spend double.

Noctua make great coolers sometimes they are on sale for around 50 dollars, you can also go with the smaller coolers from Noctua.

Be Queit and Phanteks also make good air coolers that are quiet and high quality.
