Wasn't sure to put this in overclocking or this since it's technically about the actual cooler. How high do you think that a Dark Rock Pro 3 could get a 5820K 3.3GHZ overclock? I'm looking for at least 4.0 Ghz while retaining good temperatures, mid 70's at most :P Is it too much to ask for with a cooler? Also does the cooler come with pre-applied thermal paste or at least come with thermal paste? 

 

Thank you <3

4.2ghz+ should be very doable depending on your chip.

Yes, it comes with thermal paste.

Basically what WM said. I would also like to add that my (previously owned) Scythe Mugen Max kept my (previously owned) 5820K at mid 60s when it was OCd to 4.0ghz and it comes in at 40 Euros (35ish pounds). It is also very quiet, just a pain to install.
