Picked these up for my TRON Legacy theme build. Got the optional light bar upgrade kit(s). Note, for a quad channel package you will need two light bar kits as each covers two sticks. No issues...

Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO CPU Cooler (RR-212E-20PK-R1)
Reviewed by junhawng

I honestly love this cooler, but I think I'm gonna move on to another one soon, it just looks... A bit to bland compared to other flaming red (literally) coolers on the market.

After more reading and video watching about fans than is probably healthy, I've decided to go with the Corsair Quiet Edition fans. 3 SP120's, 1 AF120, 1 AF140. Also picking up a 4 in 3 hdd enclosure and a 6 channel fan controller. Might as well go all out.

But yeah, after watching video's, the corsairs seem smoother/quieter than the noctua's. Since quiet is what I'm going after, I'll give them a shot. I guess I can always exchange them if I'm not happy with them.

Thanks everyone for the advice, I appreciate all the input.
