I have an 8600k that I would like to get better cooling on. I can hit about 4.6ghz, but beyond that, my temps climb pretty quickly to 95C in Prime95 no matter what settings or voltages I use. At 4.6ghz, I get about 78C after an hour in Prime95.

 

I currently have an Lian Li Lancool II Mesh case and I run a CoolerMaster 120 AIO (I believe it is the MasterLiquid Lite 120). I don't really have a preference for air or water, but I would like something that works. I was looking at some Noctua coolers, but I have no clue what is an 'upgrade' that would be worthwhile compared to what I have. 

 

Thanks!
