Best i7 2600k Cooler

[soullStream]

Hello. I need some help in choosing an aftermarket cooler for my new build. I am going to use an i7 2600k and i am willing to play up to $100 aus, a little more if REALLY worth it. I do plan to overclock my new cpu but not much higher than 4 ghz. Any advice is welcome! Thanks in advance

The expensive but almost the kings of air cooling and silence is Noctua.

If you want rather spend a little more and go for watercooling BUT the closed loop ones like Corsair (H40, H60, H80, H100/Antec Khuler 620, 920), know a few people with some of them and works wonders for them on the 2600K

Corsair H80 or Corsair H100, expand your budget and get an xspc rasa rx 240

+1 for sealed water cooling the Antec Kuhler H20 920, cools amazingly well but it is loud at full fan speed
