I'm looking for a cooler that lets me increase the multiplier slightly without spending too much.
I've managed to bring it down to 3 picks.
Be quiet! Pure Rock - 36$
CM Hyper 212x - 35$ (evo costs 54$
)
CM Hyper 412s (not the slim one) - 39$
These are the cheapest options I found for my country. I'm aware of the Cryorig H7, but it's not available here. I'd also appreciate any other recommendations.
Thanks!

i would choose the quiet one first since it's very quiet.
in total, it offers a larger surface area compared to the 212 and will fit into more cases than the 412 (which is quite tall at 160mm).

Stay quiet! The performance matches the H7.

i would choose the one with quiet 1 first, simply because it's much quieter.
in general, it offers a larger surface area compared to the 212 and can fit into more cases than the 412 (which is very tall at 160mm).
