Evo is taller but less expensive. As long as your PC works with it, use the EVO.

Looks a little sketchy, try looking for one by a well-known brand, like cooler master or corsair. Read reviews and make sure there are at least 100. Also try site like newegg.com for shopping. PCPartPicker is also a very good too for shopping.

I would not recommend any of the top down coolers that you listed. I would recommend the Antec or the Deepcool. You don't need too much for a non-overclockable processor.

Intel Xeon 1650 V0 (4.4GHz @1.4V), ASRock X79 Extreme6, 32GB of HyperX 1866, Sapphire Nitro+ 5700XT, Silverstone Redline (black) RL05BB-W, Crucial MX500 500GB SSD, TeamGroup GX2 512GB SSD, WD AV-25 1TB 2.5" HDD with generic Chinese 120GB SSD as cache, x2 Seagate 2TB SSHD(RAID 0) with generic Chinese 240GB SSD as cache, SeaSonic Focus Plus Gold 850, x2 Acer H236HL, Acer V277U be quiet!

^ Ditto. 

If you're getting coil whine, I don't see how replacing your cooler is going to help.

No, they're the same height. The 212x just has a slightly better fan.
