The r1 is good for a 4.7 to 4.9 depeni g on the chip and case cooling. So basically either will do. But with the r1 ypu dont have to worry about a pump failing in the future, or the possibilty of a leak

I'll put another other option out, I'm running my 4770K at 4.6ghz 1.3Vcore on a Corsair H105, runs around 75c with reduced fan speeds. (the fans are loud at full speed). And the 4790K has better heat dissipation. Very happy with this heatsink.
