I'm panning a gaming rig and i want an air cooler for i7 6700k but i 'm not sure which air cooler of the same price level is better, so here are some coolers on different price levels that i want to know which is the best in terms of temperature in each level

 

Cryorig R1 Ultimate vs Noctua NH-L12 vs Noctua NH-D15 vs Noctua NH-D14

 

another level

 

CRYORIG H5 ULTIMATE vs Noctua NH-C12P-SE14 vs Cooler Master Hyper 612 PWM vs Noctua NH-U12S

another level


Cooler Master Hyper D92 vs CRYORIG H7 vs Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo

so many coolers got me confused especially when two from the same manufacturer have similar price

Well first you have to identify your need.  Will it be overclocking or just for silence and efficiency?

well, there will be some overclocking that's for sure but silence would be good as well
in any case i just want to know based on temperatures but please notice me if there's somesort of big trade between performance and noise in any of the comparisons

Sorry I wasn't looking at your recommendations out of all of those I would recommend the Hyper 212 Evo just for it's all around simplicity and it's silence and efficiency. :)

i was originally planning to have either H7 or 212 evo but unfortunately they might not be available so i'm considering what would be better on the other available coolers on different price levels

I'd say the NH-U12S is better than the H5 Ultimate. It performs similarly and is quieter. http://www.tweaktown.com/reviews/6966/cryorig-h5-universal-cpu-cooler-review/index6.html
