Hello, I was wondering what cooler to get to OC my 4770k to 4.0-4.1Ghz and still run a little cool. My case is the corsair 750D, and I don't want to spend more than 80-90$.So, AIO CL or air cooler? Also, will the Seasonic S12G 650W PSU be able to power my system without issues, or should I get a 750w one to be sure?

A Noctua D14/15 will do just fine, no need for AIO. Noctua will be cooler, quieter, better at that price point. And SeaSonic 650W is plenty for the build, no need for more wattage.
Thanks for your input. I currently have a low quality 660w and it can barely hold itself. And during those seconds that the r9 draws more power, it just sounds like an airplane taking off.
I mostly wanted the AIO for the cool look it provides, as my case will have a window, but i've read some horrible things and I just want my build to be fine over looks. So the D14 will be able to drive 4.0ghz with not exceedingly high temps?

Check up some benchmarks, D14 is one of the best air coolers in the market, competes with H100i and H110, usually even gets an edge.

Exactly, a great cooler indeed. Your case has plenty space to accommodate the cooler, no issues there.
And no worries, glad to help
