Which cooler should you choose for your i5 4690k? How much performance can I boost with the H7, and is the extra $12 for the H5 worth it? Also, how quiet are these compared to the stock cooler?

The H7 cooler claims to move around 140 watts, which is slightly higher than the H5's 180 watts, offering a bit more power output. With the H7, the 4.4 area seems achievable, though precise figures are hard to pin down since each chip varies.

No guarantee on 4.4 it will depend on how much voltage the chip your receive needs to be 100% stable. By the way that is a very good choice going with a Cryorig cooler I replaced my H100 water cooler with a R1 and actually lowered my temps a couple C.
If your in for the long hall and the H5 will fit in your case I would consider the extra 15 bucks or so a fairly good investment for when you need to overclock the processor a bit more when it's near the end of it's performance life. That might buy you another year before rebuilding or buying a better cooler.
You should be able to get 4.4 in the 1.18/1.19 area (depending on the chip) on the Vcore voltage, my 4790K at 4.6 is on 1.22
