Hey Guys! So, I just got an i7-2600k for myself and I was looking for a cooler under $25. The stock speed on the 2600k is 3.4Ghz and I am planning on doing a modest overclock to 4.0Ghz. What do you guys think of the following choices?

My case is the HBT+ Shield 700 in case any of you were wondering. Thanks in advance!
 
Solution
Sometimes you can find the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo for < $25.00 USD. I got mine for $23.84 about 16 months ago. I use it on my i5-2500k and have overclocked it to 4.6GHz and have never exceeded 63C.
