I'm planning to buy a i5 6600K + Gigabyte Gaming 7 + Corsair Vengeance LPX 3000 16GB setup and just realized that if I'm passing my CPU/motherboard/ram setup to my son, I'd need a new CPU cooler as well. My cooler currently is a CM Hyper 212 Evo which, for the price, I am very happy with.
Since I'm splurging a bit with my planned build, I thought I might as well do the same for the cooler. For almost 3x more in price, I have been looking at the Noctua NH-D15 at £70. Is there any other cooler I should be considering that is along the £60-80 price range (maybe even £90) that can give the D15 a run for its money? Most reviews I see, the D15 is among the top contenders in terms of cooling and low noise levels, but I have only been looking at coolers for the past 2 days so I'm asking here in case I missed something.
Thanks!
