Looking to choose a water cooler for my i7 6700k processor
I'm planning to perform some overclocking, but nothing extreme. I couldn't fit a 280 mm radiater, though I already tried lol. My Corsair H110 worked fine, but it blocked the CPU power connector for my PSU. I'm considering a 240 mm option. However, I've heard a lot about Hyper Evo and others saying it's superior to H55/H60, so I want to confirm if they're really suitable. I also don't want an unattractive heat sink.
h60 functions properly, I've noticed it being used on 6600k and 6700k models on pcpartpicker.com. Reviews on newegg show many users with 6700k and 6600k giving positive feedback about it. Even some AMD 8350-70 enthusiasts, who tend to be hotter, have shared good experiences.

Good to great air coolers outperform basic AIO water coolers in my view. If you choose water cooling, semi-modular systems are superior and support maintenance and upgrades (without full custom builds). This approach feels more like a long-term investment than a short-lived product, unlike most AIOs which typically last only 3-5 years. However, if budget is a concern, high-quality air coolers remain a much better option.
