Need HS/F suggestion

[TheCommander]

Can someone recommend the best HS/F for a 2500k? I'm looking for pretty much a "box" cooler. I've been looking through a whole bunch but none really seem to stand out.

Define box cooler.

These are the ones I've been eyeing for my AMD, but they still will rock with a 2500k.

From best to worst (only temperatures matter, cost be damned yet staying under $80):

Thermalright Silver Arrow > Noctua DH-14 > Thermalright HR-02 Macho > Noctua NH-U12P SE2 > Thermalright True Spirit > Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus or Evo

Box cooler?

And how much you're gonna spend?

Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus is a good one for a basic inexpensive upgrade to the stock cooler.

Does the Noctua NH-D14 seem to stand out?
