I'm currently building a new PC and I'm getting an I7-6700k for it. I'm not sure whether to get a Be Quiet! Dark Rock 3 or a CoolerMaster Hyper 212 EVO, I don't want water cooling because I get paranoid extremily easy and will constantly worry about leaks xD Thank in advance.

PS- I'm building it from a Website as I don't trust myself even though I've built one before so the two fans are the only options xD

Would the Dark Rock 3 keep the i7-6700k cool enough, sorry if I'm being annoying.

Here's a question I have to ask. Considering that you're going to use an i7-6700K, are you going to be overclocking it? If so, I would recommend a beefier cooling unit.

Current recommendations include Noctua's NH-D14, Cryorig H5 Universal or Ultimate for adequate cooling and low noise operation.

Thanks for the response. I don't plan to overclock so do you recon the Dark Rock 3 or a Hyper 212 EVO will suffice, if not do you recon I should downgrade my CPU so that the coolers can suffice??

Thanks I'll get the 212 EVO for now and if I need a better one I'll get the Cryorig H5 Unversal
