NH-D14

that's what i use and it keeps it below 50 C at all times(excluding stress tests). Also I took out one of the fans(front one and kept the middle fan)

i guess I will add the cooler master hyper 212, that should cover the price ranges
my setup is an i5 2500k @4.64
idle @ 25C
prime95 @ < 70C

SR-71 that is a nice cooler I have never scene before.

I used the Phanteks on my AMD build.

Meh Phanteks is larger than the NH-D14 and performs the same, though it's really aesthetic preference.

I have the Noctua on my Intel build and the Phanteks on my AMD build,both perform very well and both very easy to install.
