Hi! I'm a video editor and looking for parts to a pc.

I'll be using an intel core i7-5820k. I will do some rather intensive tasks once in a while, but I will never overclock it. I felt that the stock cooler won't do the job. Will the Corsair h60 keep up? I have a budget so I wouldn't spend much more on a cpu-cooler.

Get a Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo

 

There was another cheap air cooler, but I forgot what it was called.

For non-overclocking I'd say the H60 is good.

 

A good air cooling alternative would be the bequiet dark rock 3 or shadow rock 2. Both are pretty large and quiet.

 

 

 

oh and: inb4 Hyped 212 EVO

 

Edit: got ninjad, all these hyper 212 EVO peasants can sod right off, this cooler is dead.

who cares...

212 evo is propably your best option if you are not gonna OC and don't have height limit or ram limit. Its way cheaper than even cheap AIOs and will definetly perform.
