What about the noise ? - It would be good to have a quite cpu cooler but i want the performance.

Hi, all the information is above.
I found the folllowing intresting.

Gelid Solutions GX7
Be Quiet! Dark Rock
AKASA Venom Voodoo
Coolermaster V6GT
Gelid Tranquillo Rev.2
 
I have the Gelid Tranquillo V2 and it's awesome. Keeps my 3770K nice and cool and it's very quiet. Also really easy to install. Pics on the Z77 Sabretooth motherboard thread.
 
Ok, so the ones i posted aint any good ?
As i said performance+price is most important to me and the noise is not a issue for me but it would be nice to have a queit rig.

I have used the Gelid tranquillo a lot. It's a very good cooler for the price, I have overclocked plenty of i5 2500Ks to 4.4ghz at around 54 deg under full load with it.

I wouldnt say it was loud, obviously what temps you will get varies from CPU to CPU as well as your case and ambient temps
