Look for Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO cooler. It is the best bang for buck cooler.

Is it loud? because the stock cooler gets very loud when I'm gaming.

No, for many people, this is the go to cpu cooler if they're on a budget, it's not loud and should cool your cpu efficiently, but don't overclock with it, it can't handle temps that high

Hyper $212 is $25 and does very well for the money....will take a Haswell to 4.3 - 4.4 Ghz .... fan speed is 2000 rpm

Phanteks PH-TC14-PE will get ya another 7-10C of cooling and that comes in at around $65 (nice looking too).... Noctua DH-14 comes close to that ... will take Haswell to 4.4 - 4.5 GHz .... fan speed = 1200 rpm

Noctua DH15 and Cryorig R1 will get ya another degree for $90 or so.....fan speed = 1500 rpm / 1300 rpm

On the wet side....

None of the 120/140mm CLC units will do better than the above

The Corsair H110 is comparable to the Noctua DH-14 - $110 .... 1500 rpm

The Swifteck 220-X ($130) renders all 240/280 CLCs obsolete.....4.5 maybe 4.6 Ghz .... 1800 rpm

Noise is proportional to fan speed.

So which fan would be good for overclocking?

for 65 ppunds you can get the noctua dh 14, it's the best air cooler, arguably. It offers the same cooling capabilities as the high end water coolers too http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HS...

On overclockers, they have weekly deals, so sometimes the price drops by 10 pounds to 55
