Budget = 3k

I liked scythe mugen 2, ocz vendetta 2, cooler master hyper H520, etc etc :@
My mind is heating up more than my cpu. :bleh:

Please suggest the best one in that range since I won't be able to change it later. And yes I want to overclock it so suggest accordingly.

Waiting for ur valuable suggestions.

Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme Rev. C is best in 3k budget.

If you want one with a fan then would suggest the Thermalright Cogage TRUE Spirit.

Fans is not an issue, I can install as much as it requires, I just want the best. So please suggest.

Would cogage be better than TR ultra extreme (with 2 fans)????
And what about mugen 2 with 4 fans????????

Sunbeam Core-Contact freezer 120mm CPU Cooler = Rs.2,500
Sunbeam Tuniq Tower 120 Extreme CPU Cooler = Rs.2,500
Thermalright CPU Cooler Ultra 120 Extreme Rev. C = Rs.3,200
Thermalright CPU Cooler TRUE Black 120 Rev. C = Rs.3,200
Sunbeam Tuniq Propeller 120 CPU Cooler = Rs.2,950
Thermalright Cogage TRUE Spirit CPU Cooler = Rs.2,100
^These were the quotes from TheITWares -TheITwares Ecommerce

So everyone here please suggest me which one is simply the best so that I can overclock my cpu too much. Also if any other cooler falls in my range then do let me know.
Waiting for u guys to pour in the most valuable suggestions.

Unless you are blind, your query has already been answered. Pair it with a Scythe S Flex 120mm fan.

The fan u stated is of around 1k. But since I'm bit tight on my budget so can it run fine for few weeks without fan too????

TheITWares -Noctua NH-U12P SE2 120mm SSO CPU Cooler - TheITWares 800 bucks over budget but includes two great fans worth 2k

I agree....i just bought this cooler few days back and there is a clear 10 degrees C difference when compared to the stock intel cooler.

The build quality and finishing are amazing. And u get 2 high quality fans. :hap2:
I was thinking abt the TRUE 120 rev.c ....but hav no regrets whatsoever after buying the Noctua.

Cheers.
 
Similar performance.

The TRUE takes the lead when processors are overclocked higher.

It is May, you are in Delhi & it's a Q6600 so obviously no :P

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:
Okay so I have finalized that I'll buy thermalright ultra extreme revision C. Now tell me which 2 fans should I hook it up.
Regarding the fan plz tell me the best means ultimate one so that I never feel to change it as I won't be upgrading after it.

Scythe GentleTyphoon D1225C12B5AP-15 120mm 57CFM Fan
Cooler Master Excalibur 120mm 85CFM Fan

Fan review as compared to other good fans :
Cooler Master Excalibur Fan Review | TechREACTION

but you will end up paying more than the Noctua NH-U12P SE2 which performs better as stated in the review above
