I recommend the be quiet! Dark Rock 3 Pro. It's 89.99$ and it's cool really well and is silent. Another option would be the NH-D14 which cool a tiny little bit better (like a degree) but looks god awful and is louder. 

 

It has won OC3D's Gold and Value for the Money Award.     gold.png   vfm.png

 

Have a look at what OC3D hads to say about it in their review: http://www.overclock3d.net/reviews/cases_cooling/bequiet_dark_rock_pro_3_review/6

 

Also here have a link: http://www.ncixus.com/products/?usaffiliateid=1000031504&sku=93616&vpn=BK019&manufacture=be%20quiet%21&promoid=1320

It's cool. 

But depending on where you live, the Be Quiet coolers will or will not cost 70-90dollars.

Take the H100i as example, it costs 90-100USD, in Denmark it's like 120-140 :P

personally I like the ones that have the heat pipes that are ground down or machined into the die that contacts the CPU lid.. (not really sure how its made)  each manufacturer has their own name for it.. 

 

 

some of these have been on frosty tech top five for a while and are the biggest air coolers that I know of with that sort of heatpipes..   there could be some other ones that im missing..  

 

Silverstone Argon AR03 (the is probably the newest) 

 

Spire TME III Thermal Eclipse V3 

 

Tuniq Tower 120 Extreme.. (you need to get a hold of some special screws that are sold separately to use with 2011 socket.  im currently using this with a 3930k and the temps seem pretty good..even with 4.5ghz overclock. :)

Nh-d14, be quiet dark rock pro 3. Both pretty the same performance and silence. H100i for tiny bit better performance but much louder.

This is the air cooling section so the h100i and h220 isn't an option, dunno about the other 2, never seen them :P

And I'd recommend this: http://www.ncixus.com/products/?usaffiliateid=1000031504&sku=93616&vpn=BK019&manufacture=be%20quiet%21&promoid=1320 as it's cheaper atm and good

Emmh... Maybe consider killing yourself before you talk to me?

 

Pople on this forum though some of them had a brain, turns out, no.
