Is Hyper 212 EVO enough to OC a 4790k to 4.6-4.7Ghz and get a stable temp?

the title says it all my AIO water cooler just broke and the stock intel fan wont cut it.

I look at Noctua but im worried my ram is to tall. i have Corsair vengance pro DDR3

You don't need to worry about it. Noctua thought about that.

I've been running one at 4.6 with a Cooler Master Nepton 240m for about 3 years now. It's worth a look imo

that picture looks familiar :D

Well I overclock my I7-7700K with a Noctua at 5.0GHz (1.335v) and stay under Prime 95 at max temp of 69°C. If I would delid my i7 and change the TIM with liquid metal too about 10-20°C cooler.

actually, you can probally go .4GHz higher and still be fine. i actually have on my setup an I6700K overclocked to 4.4ghz on a hyper 212 evo and i'm idling at 38 degrees. given i have a great airflow and the entire CPU has thermal paste on the heatspreader, it might be diffrent for you.

The NH-D15S is even better than that, it offsets further from the GPU leaving bigger gap.

It also offsets further forward, leaving enough room for Quad Channel 8 X DIMM setup slot better than NH-D15. Just compare the two designs, the Same is really clever and will be easier for TR X399 mobo compatible with the bigger contact base.

I can't recommend the S version enough. It's basically a shrunken NH-D15 with exact same performance, exact weight and one of the only two cooler rated 9.9/10 on Techpowerup and all other sites ever reviewed it. The only reason it didn't get 10 perfect score was Noctua messed up MSRP back in 2015 it was same price as NH-D15 but without 2nd fan, and has been fixed since.
