What CPU Cooler Should I Get With A 6800K?

Should I get say a Hyper 212X Duo with a 6800k, or should I get a better cooler? I'm looking at the 30$ - 70$ range for the coolers. Any suggestions would be appreciated! :)

The 212x isn't a bad option.

The Pure Rock could be a cheaper and better option: http://pcpartpicker.com/product/cwPzK8/be-quiet-cpu-cooler-bk009

If you'd like more cooling, check out the Fuma: http://pcpartpicker.com/product/dVwqqs/scythe-cpu-cooler-scfm1000 

 

Moved to Air Cooling.

I was going to come in here and say H5 Ultimate or NH-U14S, but nope. If it fits, the Fuma wins. If it doesn't, then either of the two I listed would be a great fit for the job. 

I enjoy buying junk and sinking more money than it's worth into it to make it less junk.

Not sure if the Fuma would fit, but if it does ill go with it in this build.

The Fuma is shorter than the 212x and fits just fine.
