I have been looking at CoolerMaster Hyper 212x, CoolerMaster Hyper 212 Evo and Cryorig H7. Will any of these do the trick for the build I have? I am thinking about OC'ing my CPU later on as well.

The H7 is the best out of those listed.

Also im not sure why you listed your gpu and mobo? the cpu cooler will only cool the cpu.

I am glad you asked.

 

A guy on another forum told me that the CPU cooler would also affect the Mobo and GPU. Since it is called "CPU cooler", I was also surprised by this.

 

I think perhaps he/she meant was that if the CPU cooler temperature goes too high, it will affect the CPU, which in turn will affect the GPU?
