Hyper 212 Evo, Antec Kuhler Shelf, or the Antec Kuhler Flow?

[mgsstar]

Which one is better: The Hyper 212 EVO, the Antec Kuhler Shelf, or the Antec Kuhler Flow because they are all around the same price. Which one offers better cooling?

I do not have any experience with the antec ones but I can say that the evo is pretty amazing. It is also $20 cheaper than those other two

hyper 212 evo +. Dont forget the (+)!!

the plus has more compact copper heatpipes causing better heat transfer=more cooling.

if your case has clearance for it, definitely the best price / performance air cooler. Next step up is water cooling

Another vote here for the EVO. Keeps my i7-920 nice and frosty.

Also the EVO and Plus are two different models. The EVO fixed a lot of design oversights with the plus.

Has anyone tested out antec ones, how are the coolers above perform?

the only one i prefer to use is the CM 212 (plus or EVO). easy to use,

setup and control. RAM clearance is tolerable of nose-bleed heatsinks.

and th cost is very hard to beat, especially on rebate.. ive gotten one

for $10 shipped after rebate (6months).
