Hello guys,

I have a i5 4690k overclocked to 4.3GHz with a 212 EVO providing cooling; it does a pretty good job and I could probably push the overclock higher, however the cooler is bulky and it means I can't close the case and I'm wondering if a 120mm liquid cooler would provide better or worse cooling than a 212 EVO:
