I'm unsure about the CPU speeds I'll be able to overclock to. My setup includes an i7-6850K on an Asus X99-E-10G WS and a cooler from LEPA AquaChanger 240.
I plan to run RAM up to 3000MHz, which is what I need for OC.
Is this cooler suitable? What do you think? I selected it randomly through pcpartpicker without knowing the right size.
Thanks

Air cooling is sufficient for some overclocking needs. However, because it uses a liquid cooler, you can achieve even higher speeds. This approach seems effective and safe.

Air cooling is sufficient for some overclocking needs. However, because it uses a liquid cooler, you can achieve significantly higher speeds. This approach would likely be effective and safe.
