I am making my first build and want to know what the best heat sink for the i7 would be if i overclocked to like 3.3ghz.I have the cooler master HAF 932 case. I would like to spend like 60 bucks on it maybe more if it is worth it. RED LEDs would be great and if it is on newegg it would be better.
Here are a few i have found:

I have not researched heat sinks at all so any information is greatly appreciated. :)

I think I figured it out there was a combo deal with the i7 so I just did this:

Just make a decision...product description and specs should tell you all you need to know...other than how to MAKE a decision...
