No, hyper 212+ can't handle at 4.5 ghz.Better you get Noctua NH U12P SE2 @3.5k from TheITWares - One Stop for all Gizmos!TheITwares Ecommerce.

Actually I brought CoolerMaster V6GT but the problem is it's Height

No, hyper 212+ can't handle at 4.5 ghz.Better you get Noctua NH U12P SE2 @3.5k from TheITWares - One Stop for all Gizmos!TheITwares Ecommerce.

I specified the term 'look'. ;) Noctua NH-U12P SE2 is better than V6GT at every aspect except for its look (i.e. no led). Sometimes people wanna show-off everything and so it was a side suggestion. :)

@OP: if you don't care about look then Noctua is the way to go:cool:

Noctua NH-U12DX is better.

i think d14 is better

is one of the best among air coolers

also op can consider Coolit Alc R120 will fit into his budjet

Get the Zalman CNPS 9900 MAX quite comparable to NH-D14 at much cheaper price. Its available at Primeagb.
