NH-D15
The cooling performance is very high even at low noise levels. And even though the fans can go really wild, the cooler is optimized for exceptionally quiet operation. This is supported by the fact that the temperature variation between the maximum noise level (48 dBA) and really silent 33 dBA is only about 4 degrees Celsius (180 W). The cooling performance decreases linearly as well as the noise level according to the speed/airflow. Compared with cheaper coolers (for example, SilentiumPC Fera 3), it is clear that D15 is dominant with a lower airflow rate, because the big heatsink makes a difference. However, the price for it are various possible collisions.
"NH-D15 probably still remains (even after three and a half years after the release) the most efficient commercially available CPU cooler." (Ľubomír Samák, HWCooling.net)
