3570k: CM EVO 212 Good Enough?

[Firelance]

I am buying my parts tomorrow and I was wondering if the EVO would be good enough. I do not plan on OCing anywhere over 4GHz (probably even less) and I don't know if the EVO would do it for IB temps.

If there is another fan in the below $40 range, please post it.

Yes, I think you will be fine with the EVO. I am running the 3570k on the EVO right now.

I'm still testing since this is a recent build, but prime95 at 3.6GHZ the max temperature was 62 C, and at 4.8 GHz it was in the high 90s. Since you won't be going that high, I think you will be fine, but then again your chip will be different than mine. But generally speaking the EVO will be fine for a reasonable overclock.

It is perfectly fine.
