Hi everyone,

I'm building a game PC and need help with the CPU cooler. My CPU is the intel core i5-7600K. I don't know if I need to take a water cooler or air cooler. So I want to know which cooler is the best for overclocking. My budget for the cooler is around 100 euro's. 
Also do I need to buy pasta myself or do I get it with the cooler? And if I need to buy it myself which is the best?

 

My build:

CPU: Intel core i5 7600K
CPU cooler: cryorig r1 universal

Motherboard: Asus ROG strix Z270F
RAM: Corsair vengeance lpx (3200MHz) 2 stick from 8GB 
SSD: samsung evo 960 500GB (pci m.2)
HDD: WD blue edition 1TB
GPU: Asus ROG strix gtx 1060 OC 6GB

PSU: Corsair RM650x

OS: windows 10 pro 64-bit

Case: NZXT H440

 

Thanks in advance!

 

My own build: RΛZΞR theme

CPU: Intel Core i5 7600K // CPU cooler: Cryorig H7 // Motherboard: MSI Z270 gaming pro carbon //       

Video Card: MSI Armor gtx 1070 OC 8GB // RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16GB 3200MHz //  

SSD: Samsung EVO 960 500GB // HDD: 2x WD yellow edition 2TB //

LN2 is a good one then. But seriously go take a Scythe Fuma. Is imo the best cooler for your needs. Noctua performance without the Noctua pricetag. And outperforming the AIO's you can get under 100 euro.

The object of life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane.
