Should i get the Corsair H60?

I am building a new pc soon. You can see the parts in the picture.

I am thinking about overclocking on the 3570K.

But the questions are:

 

1. Are there any better alternatives in about the same price range?

2. Should i replace the fan included with something better, and if so, what fan?

 

I am ordering from dustinhome.no , so please refer to products on the site :)

The H60 is to expensive for what it can cool, you can get a Noctua NH-D14 for the same money. But if you really like the look of it you sould get a H80i or a H100i if a 240mm rad fits in your case.

The Arctic Cooling Freezer 13 Pro for half the money will outperform a H60.

Most air coolers will outperform a H60. With a $2000 build get a H220 from Swiftech.

 

Just did a search on the site. Seems they do not have the H220 yet. In that case got with the H100i here: http://www.dustinhome.no/product/5010658118/corsair-h100i-hydro-cpu-cooler-s-1155-1366-2011-am3/#intcmp=searchProvider_SiteSeeker

Yes, the H80 will fit in a HAF X however not with push pull installed internally - you'll have to run one fan externally. How did I know you're looking at the HAF X? I am magic.

Actually if you go to the picture URL you can see its an R4. :)

 

EDIT: And yes, a H80i will fit.
