Hi guys,
like the title says, i'm looking to fresh even more my 4690K with a aftermarket cooler, what do you guys advice in terms of quality\performance\price up to £30? I took a look in the reviews but I saw a few options and then I took a look on the system built marathon and I see 2 diff cpu coolers.. can you guys help me?

thanks in advance

I'd recommend the Hyper 212 EVO (what LucoTF has linked to.)
I use one in my own build on a 4670k (which is very similar to the 4690k). Its in the hottest room of my house and my temperatures never exceed 30 degrees at idle and 50 at full load (its not over-clocked).
The 4690k has newer and better thermal paste than the 4670k so you should get better temperatures than I am getting at stock-speeds!

Thanks guys, I was thinking about that one since I saw him on the system built marathon, but i'm always looking to know if there is something a little bit better eheheh. I will go with that one its under the £30. Thanks once again.
 


In all honesty you might find better for £30 if you go trawling the reviews to find one, but the difference will likely be 1-2 degrees at best and the 212 evo is tried and tested
