If you want a good air cooler go with the Hyper 212 EVO, dont be fooled by the price.

If you want liquid cooling go with the corsair H60

I have an  issue. I want to overclock my i5 4690k fairly hard but my case is not wide enough to allow coolers that are over about 14cms high. Any recommendations for about £40-50? 

do you like quiet if so look at be quiet!

 

they have good coolers at that price range

<p>Wish I could have this already!! : http://pcpartpicker.com/p/qTLRjX

Specifically I can't use any cooler that is over about 14 centimetres high as I couldn't shut my case

The hyper 212 EVO is 159mm tall. It won't fit.

I use this inside my Corsair 250D to cool my 3770K (stock) and it holds around 50C while running Prime95. Don't know about overclocking though...

Total height of this bad boy is 130mm, so you should be fine :)

CIT vantage gaming case. The thing is really thin

that's not that thin (185mm wide). Thin is what I call the Bitfenix Pandora (160mm wide).

 

the Cryorig H7 should fit easily, especially if you remove the upper fan on the side panel (which is pointless for tower coolers anyway, it'd be much better in the rear of the case).
