Hi, I am looking to upgrade my current CPU (i5 4460) with an i5 8600k but i'm stuck on what cooler to get for it that would keep the temps under control and allow it to always boost to 4.2 GHz.

Also I only have 160mm in my case to work with.

I'm looking at a hyper 212 EVO will this be ok?

 

Thanks

Hyper 212 Evo is the answer to all your cooling needs. I've been running a 5820k with a 212 Evo just fine.

Yep, that will be enough according to the spec sheet.

RAM? Where are you shopping from? Evo isn't the best budget cooler and we might be able to find something better for you.
