Hey guys, I just joined Tom's Hardware and already have a question... I have an old LGA 1155 system that needs a cooler and there aren't any that interest me. All I see are those ugly Hyper 212 EVO looking coolers. Not looking to do any overclocking or anything on it but need a whisper quiet cooler... Any ideas?

So the height of the 212 isn't the problem? It's just too ugly? And you want a quiet cooler that won't be used to overclock?

I'd get the Cryorig H7, I've used it in a build before for the same reasons. http://pcpartpicker.com/product/93Crxr/cryorig-cpu-cooler-h7

More expensive coolers make less sense for a stock clock, but if you want options:

Looks great. Much better looking than the EVO. Still researching and also observing the responses
