Which Cooler?

[ZombifiedPyro]

The poll says it all. Any suggestions would be great. Everything but the hyper 212 EVO cost about $50, the EVO costs $30. Something I forgot to mention.

 

Thanks,

Phanteks for aesthetics and that it's a good cooler for the money

I would go with the Hyper 212 EVO since it costs significantly less and is one of the best air coolers around.

the Dark knight II is a really good choice if you're planning on overclocking from what I've seen but if you're not going to overclock much go with the one that cost less money.

Personally, when I select a CPU cooler, I'm just looking for something that's an improvement over the stock cooler, which describes just about everything. After that, it's mostly a matter of aesthetics. If aesthetics is as much a factor for you as it is for me, go for the Phanteks.

Well I am building an ugly computer since I do not have the money to pick parts that look good together.

Dark Knight II because it looks awesome and performs well. According to Tek Syndicate's review, it can beat a H100 when it has two fans.

Hyper 212 if you don't have a lot to spend. 

NZXT Havik 140 or The Dark Knight if you want to spend a bit more. And if the Noctua U12S is the same price as the Havik and Knight then get the U12S.

Dark Knight, punches above its weight in performance and style.

either the phanteks or the hyper. pretty or cheap. either those or the havik 140/ thermalright macho 120 (I realize they weren't actually options-for better performance)

Got it, used it....now it's on my kid's 6300 build. The Xigmatek DK2 that is.....great cooler in the 120mm flavor. PLUS...it's downright sexy!!! Dumped the stock fan and went with Akasa Apache's....better fans overall.
