Noctua NH-D14, I actually saw one in the flesh today. Awesome quality and a massive tube of paste is included! I'm personally only running the SB-E as it's slightly better (From what I've read) and the colour scheme is good. If Noctua *fixed* their fan colours they'd have a 100% winning product.

I wish the 212+ etc was in there, they are an amazing cooler for the price. thumb.gif
