So I've had the stock cooler for the Intel Core i5 3570k for a while now, and I want a new one, so I was wondering if I should get the Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO or the Be Quiet! Dark Rock Pro 2

Yeah the dark rock pro 2 is quieter and cooler. People act like the 212 evo is better than high end dual tower coolers and it's not. The high end dual tower are at least 13c cooler and like 15db quieter. The evo is great when you are on a budget, in fact there are only a couple budget coolers that even compete, but its not a high end cooler nor can it compete with one. I don't mean to hate on the hyper 212 but too many people are fanboys of it and just blindly tell you its the best thing to get
