It's been 3 or 4 years since I last upgraded. I have ordered all the parts and have them in hand. I ordered a 1151 skylake cpu retail and stupidly without checking thought these still came with a heatsink cooler.

My current PC and this new set up will not be over clocked. My old rig runs the stock fan.

Can someone recommend me a heat sink fan/cooler (not watercooled) for 1151 socket in an antec 1200 case. Not looking to spend a fortune, suppose up to £40 but less would be great. Can't use the old fan as I have sold it :D
 
Any cooler that supports 1155/1156/1150 will fit 1151

I got a Cooler Master Nepton 120XL free with my motherboard and their is no mention of 1151 on the specs and thats fitted fine :)

I would look at coolers like Alpenföhn Matterhorn, Prolimatech 81 or Raijintek EreBoss. Just make sure they fit your case.

What about the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo CPU Cooler?

I looked at the Hydro H60 and 110's and seems they are not a good fit for antec 1200's.

The 212 Evo is a good cooler, it's quite an old cooler now and can be picked up for £25. If you look ;)

Though I think the Raijintek EreBoss, has the edge over the 212 Evo.
