Hi:

My h100iv2 is reaching the end of its productive life. To be honest Im very dissapointed of the AIOs and I'm planning to buy a good heatsink/fan. I've read excellented reviews about the h212 evo and the masterair pro 4. Could you recommend me a good air cooling unit?

I'm currently on a Intel 6700 (non K version) and don't plan to overclock.

Thanks in advance for your valuable opinions!

EDIT: I forgot to mention, room temps where I live can reach up to 37C (no air conditioning)

Cryorig H7. If you don't get a unit with a wonky fan hub like I did, it's a really good cooler that edges out all the hyper212's in performance, has no RAM compatibility and less case height problems, is currently $35 on Newegg, making it cheaper than both the 212X and 212evo. And Cryorig's included thermal paste is superior to cooler master's. A bit on the thick/sticky side though. That's not what she said.

Or, the Noctua NH-D15, if it'll fit. Scythe Ninja 3 rev B, Scythe Fuma, Prolimatech Megahalems, Phanteks PH-TC14PE, Cryorig R1, Be Quiet Dark Rock Pro 3, Cryorig H5, I think I'm getting carried away here.

Like ksham said, unless you're overclocking or overvolting or live in an incessantly hot-and-humid place without climate...

Like ksham said, unless you're overclocking or overvolting or live in an incessantly hot-and-humid place without climate control, the stock intel cooler is good enough.
