off the bat i should say i dont overclock, i have a 2700k intel 4 core HT to 8 core that stomps games at factory clock speeds. but problem is ive been using the intel stock cooler for a while now and i need to upgrade/switch it out. i just dont want to put a behemoth cpu cooler in my pc as it has a window on the case and i like for it to look nice inside. any recommendations for what im looking for. advice is welcome too if you think im going about it wrong

was looking into this one
Silverstone Tek Low-Profile Heatsink CPU Cooler with 92mm PWM Fan, Four 6mm Heat Pipes

update* i have good airflow, even with the stock cooler i have idle temps of about 30c-35c gaming probably 45c-55c.

If you don't mind me asking, why do you want a CPU cooler upgrade if you have low temps and dont want to overclock? Are you after something quieter?

If you want something to look nice through the window, how about a cheap aio watercooler? They look really awesome through case window, especially if they have LEDs on pump :)
