Spec me a decent CPU cooler

Been away from rig building lately hence dumb question. Due to me having to replace a duff PSU I might spruce my rig up a bit whilst its in bits.

What's a good cooler for my rig in sig please - i7 LGA1155 chipset? I don't want the absolute highest performance possible but something reasonable that will fit in my case? I currently have a 7 years old Zalman Flower cooler that is not that stable even with modest overclocks.

Thanks, Steve

Sorry, forgot to mention I don't want to spend more than £40ish and I like the ones with LED's in them!
