Price varies. Where are you shopping / located and what prices are you looking at?

What cpu are you cooling?

 

The 212 Evo is the best performer of the 3 being slightly better than the Pure Rock while being much noisier. If you're aiming for low noise, the Pure Rock will perform better for the noise. The PR Slim is only slightly behind the Pure Rock in performance despite the smaller size due to the higher rpm fan.

I wouldn't recommend any of them if you are OCed.

That depends a lot. I've dialed in a decent 4,6 OC on my i3 8350K, temps were never above 60c even during stress tests on a medium fan curve on the Hyper 212 Evo. My 7700K on the other hand... Probably wouldn't keep up even at stock speeds...

Main rig: i7 8086K // EVGA Z370 Micro // 16GB Gskill TridentZ 3200Mhz CL14 // Sapphire Pulse RX 7800XT// a variety of noctua cooling // Corsair RM750x v2 //  Fractal Meshify C

Secondary rig: R5 3600 // MSI B450i Gaming Plus // 16GB Gskill FlareX 3200CL14 // MSI GTX 1080ti Gaming X // Cooler Master V650 // Fractal Meshify C

Audio setup: Audient iD4 // Adam A7X // Sennheiser HD 650 // Sennheiser HD 25-II // Audio Technica M50x // Sennheiser Momentum 4

Depends on CPU. Not if you have 7700K or 8700K. Pretty much anything else can OC. Not at highest hights, but can.
