Corsair A70 still relevant?

I've had a Corsair A70 with dual Noctua 120mm fans on my 2600k for a few years and it hums along at 4.6ghz no problem. Temps top out in the low 60s.
I've just ordered a 5930k and board and hope to run 4.4ghz to 4.5ghz, should my A70 be sufficient or should I look towards a D14/15 or a AIO? I'm not really big on the AIOs as I run a Silverstone FT02 and the only mount point for a 240MM rad is internal with the heat dumping into my case and that doesn't seem ideal.

The A70 looks reasonable, but it doesn't appear to be compatible with socket LGA 2011. Double check the compatibility but you'll probably need to pick up a new CPU cooler.

Yeah from what I've read it is compatible with 2011 via the 1366 mounting hardware and poking through the rubber gasket on the socket.

Ah, well best luck then. I feel like an A70 with dual Noctua's should do pretty well. If it is compatible, it's at least worth testing before you spend more money on a new cooler.
