I'm thinking about building a pc with the new intel i5 8600k and wondering what aircooler would be best suited for overclocking it. I need something reliable to run the 8600k without issues, under 40 euros (about 46 USD). Anyone have some solid suggestions for a good aircooler that fits these needs?

This Thermalright Macho rev. B looks great and runs very quietly. It works well even without a fan when in passive mode. However, it's quite large—featuring a 140mm fan at the front. Priced around $50.

The Cryorig H7 remains a popular choice for its price, though stock levels appear low in Europe.

Ensure proper ventilation for effective airflow, or the fan may only recirculate warm air.
