Silent cooler for B150M BAZOOKA

[McLovinHawaii]

I'm looking for a new silent cooler for my pc as the stock cooler is quite noisy. I'm running a MSI B150M Bazooka, i5 6400 Skylake and a GTX 1060 OC Dual, so nothing that needs serious cooling. It's fine that it'll make some noise when I'm gaming but when I'm using it to work on (reading/writing articles, word, etc.) I'd like it to be quiet. In fact I've been looking at Be Quiet product as they're supposed to do the job.

Could you recommend anything worth buying? I'm thinking about paying up to $150 but I don't want to "overkill" on the cooling.

Thanks

This is still overkill, but since you want silent, this'll be a nice choice. If you want something cheaper(which will still get the job done absolutely wonderfully), get the Hyper 212 Evo, it's still a very capable cooler.

Thought they would be more expensive! So if the Dark Rock 3 will make it very silent I'll go with that, thanks

The dark rock 3 is a great cooler but its unnecessary for a locked i5 in all honesty.

Its also big & you've not mentioned your case model so there's a chance it may not fit.

I'd honestly just grab a cryorig h7
