I am looking at two different coolers for my new build and am trying to decide which one to get.

 be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 3 67.8 CFM Fluid Dynamic Bearing CPU Cooler 

or the one on my build here: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/Zg4nzy 

I am going to be doing heavy tasks and occasional overclocking. Is the one on my build enough, or should I get this or something better?

Thank you in advance, all help is appreciated.

I got a dark rock pro 3, and love the thing (careful though, installing that shit is tougher than getting into mordor)

For a dual-tower heatsink, the current favorites are: Noctua NH-D15, Be quiet Dark Rock Pro 3, and Cryorig R1 Ultimate/Universal. Out of all of these, the Cryorig get my vote because it has no RAM interference, cools the same as the NH-D15, and looks pretty baller.

If you really going to get down with the overclocking.

 

 

But any Dark Rock Pro is awesome.
