What air cooler would you recommend for a 5820K in a Corsair 540?
I'm seriously considering replacing my H100i and going to pure air. Anyone have any recommendations on a good cooler for OCing?
 
To be honest I just fancied going back to an all air system. I don't really have any complaints with the H100 so not sure what I want to do.
Will the H100i still trump a good air cooler? May replace the fans as they are stupid loud on full chat
 
Thanks for all the replies, kind of forgot about this thread haha :)
I will keep the H100i and change the fans out. Amazing how now it's cooler my PC is silent :) Also the mount for X79 will work with X99 correct?
Think my main issue is my 780 SLI kicking out serious heat. Using a infrared temperature gun I measured the heat coming out of my case via the H100 rad, was about 40C (on a hot day that hurts!)
