Hi, i've got a 2700k on the way, and i have a Hyper 212 Evo cooler that arrived a while ago. I'm sure i have read good things about the 212, but it really doesn't look big enough to be any good :S

My friends got a Noctua NH-D14, which is obviously a lot more money, but its much bigger.

I'm not going to go too crazy with the overclock, but do people think the 212 Evo will be ok for 4.4-4.6GHz? Or shall i get something like the Noctua?
 
Nice one, i'll stick with the 212 then, and count that as £50 extra on my GPU budget ;)

Anyone have a 212 Evo, and know if its worth it to add a second fan for push/pull?
