I have an i72600k and I'm looking to push it a little further. It's running smoth and cool at 4.0GHz with this cooler http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA32J2CZ0073&cm_re=Cooler_master_Hyper_N520.-_-35-103-057-_-Product

I have this case http://www.coolermaster.com/case/mid-tower/elite-430-black/

I wanted to get the corsair H100i but the cpu power connector or whatever it called is blocking on of the 120m fans lots in the top of my case, So I'm forced to get a cooler that will fit in one fan slot.
That leaves me with one of these

If anyone can recommend a better option or tell which one of those is the best for my setup, I would really appreciate it.

The only one of those that might help is the H80 BUT You should be getting 4.6GHz or higher easily on the cooler you have. 140mm liquid might get another 200-300MHz on top of that

Thanks for the reply. I haven't tried to push it that far, I was afraid I would damage something.
From what I've been told and the tests I've ran,I think I have enough cooling on the cpu itself,But I would like to know more about things like the motherboard ?
What happens to components on the motherboard that can't be cooled by the fan/heatsink ?
What components do I need to worry about once I know that the cpu has adequate cooling ?

I have a ASUS P8Z68-V-Pro
