Hello,I'm looking for an air cooler for the i7-8700k which i will probably won't be overclocking, but in case i do it's not going to be something crazy,so with that in mind i need something that'll be able to keep the processor nice and cool at stock values and is able to handle some overclocking i have looked over a couple coolers and the ones that stood out the most to me are the noctua nh-d14,be quiet dark rock 3 (non pro),cryorig h5 ultimate so out of those which one is the best?,also if you have other suggestions please suggest them.

Thank you :D

Sure that's a good one. You might have trouble finding it. I'd get the Thermalright Macho Rev B or Scythe Mugen Max instead. The Mugen Max has the best performance. The Macho Rev B is the quietest with second best performance. Unless you can get a good price on the SBM. They are all good.

The Scythe Mugen Max gets even better results and is about the same price. Depending on where you look.

what do you think of the thermalright macho 120 sbm? is the noctua NH-D14 still better? because according to this https://www.tweaktown.com/image.php?image=imagescdn.tweaktown.com/content/7/8/7810_27_thermalright-macho-120-sbm-cpu-cooler-review.png the difference between the noctua and the thermalright is really not that big,and thermalright is cheaper so do you think the thermalright is a good idea? or just get the noctua?
