Hello, i'm trying to find a good aftermarket cooler for an intel i5 4670K I'm wishing to overclock it and i will need a new cooler (i ran prime95 and had to stop it because it reached 100C) at idle its at about 35C on all 4 cores. My case is a Rosewill CHALLENGER. Anything under 100$ will do for me. If i didn't include important info please let me know.
Thanks!

Ok, thanks for the replies. Would a water cooler be any better since i'm overclocking?

Here is a comparison of 4 liquid coolers against the Noctua NH D14: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/nepton-280l-tundra-...

The best AIO cooler only beat the NH D14 by a couple of degrees but it was much noisier and considerably more expensive. Not worth it in my book.

I agree with Yogi and the rest - of course I have a D14 so I'm biased. I'll stack my OC temps up against anything up to an H110i though. The D14 is quiet, reliable and effective.
