I've got a Cryorig R1 Ultimate on my 5820k, and it stays nice and cool at 4.5 ghz 1.31 volts. Under 80 at full load, and mid 30s at idle, while being almost completely inaudible.

Super easy to install as well

Highly recommend

The us,i am gonna give the noctua nh-d15s a try.

The NH-D15S is an excellent cooler but you might want to consider the slimmer NH-U14S which should be a bit easier to install.
