What are some of the best air coolers for an i7 4790K? It's hitting 84 to 88 degrees or so running Folding with what I have now at 4.4 Ghz.

Some Thermaltake tower with one big fan held on by 2 wire clips. I don't remember the name of it and I threw away the box.

Ok thanks, I agree with Atmin get a NH-D14 or D15 they're arguably the best Air heatsinks out. I'm sure the Noctua will op the Nic f3 by a significant margin.
