What CPU Cooler should I use for the Intel Core i7 4790K

[Fin998]

Hey guys, I'm starting to gather a list of all the parts that I'm going to buy to build my pc. I have the Intel Core i7 4790K on my list, I've heard many say that a aftermarket cooler is better than the stock one. Does anyone know which cooler would best suit this CPU? I would much prefer a quite fan.
Thanks

The cm hyper 212x is a great cooler for a good price if you can fit it into your case

For an expensive CPU like yours, I would suggest the NZXT Kraken X60. It is a very common i7 cooler.

I would get the Corsair H100i cooler or a single Rad closed loop personally. Thermals are great noise is low and you don't have a brick stuck to your motherboard.

For quietness, either the Noctua D14/D15, or the Phanteks TC14PE.

If you want a AIO liquid cooler, then I can recommend the Corsair H105, and set the fan profile quiet in your motherboard software.

If you don't want to OC the CPU, then the CM Hyper 212 evo is fine.

If you do, get the NH D14 or 15 (if it fits your case) or H100i (if you aren't noise sensitive)
