depends on what voltage you are required to run that OC MHz and plus what temperatures.

some can get away with the 212 HSF and some require a larger dissipative version.

 

there is no one solution to point out what overclock terms that are universally used.

Would the h80i be good? At 4.5 ghz on the 212 evo it is like 73 degrees

I bought an H110i GT a few days ago for my 4690k which is running at 4.5Ghz and 1.2v. It's an amazing cooler; when doing a CPU stress test with OCCT and with the stock SP140L fans at minimum speed (barely audible, inaudible when the GPU isn't sitting doing nothing) it holds the CPU temperature at about 60 Celsius (140F) in a room which is about 20 Celsius (68F). 

 

However, it wasn't exactly cheap, it was £94 from Amazon.

Thermalright Silver Arrow IB-E, it's $80 on amazon and performs similarly to a NH-D15

I use a corsair h110i gt and my 6700k stays around 58-62c under load at 4.6ghz, but I use the quiet profile and haven't upgraded the fans yet so there's room for improvement.

Higher frame rate over higher resolution.
