For relatively high OC's, you should consider getting a cooler that can handle intense heat effectively.

I need to find a better option that can handle the increased demands of your overclocked i5-4690k.
Isokolon asks about the temperature gap between a 212 and a D14 under load, wondering if it's worth the difference.
The result varies based on the temperatures you're experiencing.
It also relies on the overall airflow in your setup.
Currently, I have an i5-4690k running at 4GHz and it hasn't exceeded 60°C.
The high cost of the ND14 might not justify its value, though it's a nice cooler.
