Best CPU Cooler?

Jordan1417

So I have been wondering, what is the absolute best CPU cooler, I don't care about noise and shit, I want one that will keep my CPU cool af so I can overclock it to hell and back. So I hear Noctua has some good Tower coolers like the NH-D15, but there is also water cooling options. Thanks in advance for the help guys, means a lot!

I have a I7-4790K I want to cool better so I can overclock it high. I have it right now at 4.5 Stable with a Hyper Evo 212 at 1.3V

Sensible: Something like the Nepton 280L

Attach your airconditioner to the case and have a normal aircooler cpu cooler.

A lot of people are suggesting the Kraken X61, I looked it up, it looks pretty good. Still not sure on what I want to go with. Thanks for the feedback so far! Also the H100i interests me. Can anyone compare the two?

that wouldn't work delta fans are 120mm so you would loose loads of efficiency, a h105 with deltas though..........

The h100i isn't worth getting if you're going for the best. http://www.hitechlegion.com/reviews/cooling/liquid/41521-nzxt-x61-280mm-liquid-cpu-cooler-review?showall=1&limitstart=

You should be looking at the x61 or H240x for aio's or the NH-D15 for air cooling.
