Will the Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO be enough for my cpu?

[RapidRampage245]

I'm wondering if the Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO with 2 120mm fans will be enough to keep the i5 4690k cpu(not over clocked) cooled at good temps while idle/gaming? If it's not enough please recommend any other cpu coolers liquid or air thanks.

Not overclocked? Even the default Intel cooler will be enough.

If you aren't OCing it you might as well keep the stock cooler on it. Intel wouldn't give you a cooler that doesn't work to keep your processor safe. Save the money and get a better cooler eventually so you can overclock it a good bit.

If you aren't planning to overclock even the stock intel cooler will do you quite well.

 

But if you would like to overclock down the line a little maybe pick up a Hyper 212 Evo which would help you then.

It's so cheap you might as well pick it up so can do some overclocking.

If you care about noise, the Hyper 212 will give you better temps at less noise. It's cheap, too. You can even get a little OC with it. 

 

If you don't care about noise or OC, then keep the stock.
