Depends on the fans i'd say, if you have a small case then the H60 will be easier and have more compatibility due to no high heatsink.

 

nh-u12 if you have big enough case.

 

NH-D14 if you want preformance and have big enough case.

 

H60 if you only need mild overlock and small case.

H60 is quieter among the both.

Noooo. The H60 and h80i are quite louder than the u12s.
