Air cooling dilema!

I was wondering which cooler was the best out of the following:

 

Zalman CNPS2X

Cooler Master Hyper 212X

Silverstone AR02

Thermaltake CLP0605

 

They're all around the same price and I just can't decide which one to get.

I would say whichever looks the best (if that even matters to you i dont know) 
Anyway - id choose the Thermaltake CLP0605 because its got metal colored heat pipes instead of brown poop ones xD

 

Second choise for me would be Silverstone AR02 because the top looks okay and i like the grey fan on it.

But other than that, are they all pretty much the same?

If the price is non-negotiable, CM 212...for around the 40-45 dollar (US), get the Xigmatek Dark Knight 2 (in the 120mm cooler bracket)....fan is not that great IMO but the cooler is both aesthetically and performance pleasing :)   

Case: Silverstone SG09B Motherboard: MSI Z10 Morter M-ATX CPU: I5-6600K  Ram: Corsair LP 2400 DD4 16GB GPU: MSI RX 480 Storage: Seagate HDD Baracuda 2TB x2, Crucial M200 500GB SSD X2 (Raid 0)PSU: Silverstone Strider Gold 1000W w/PP05E Kit
