From what I've read, the Mugen 2 will probably work pretty well in your situation, and if I remember right, comes with all the brackets you will need.

In addition, you can't go wrong with a heatsink that will let you mount 4 120mm fans on it

This is a really good cooler, but I don't know if it will do well with an i7 and I think you'd need another bracket to fit an i7 socket anyways. If that's too much money, the Mugen 2 will serve you best from that list.

The Mugen 2 is better than that too.
