Best CLC to go with the Kraken G10

[hjj174]

Like the title says, I want your guy's opinion on what would be the best CLC to go with the G10. I'm definitely going to buy something though because my 290 is running hotter than I would like. My Tri-X 290 went derp on me about a month ago where it jumped to over 90C while playing Stronghold 3. Beforehand, the max temp was 73C. Now it runs at a max of 85C which almost negates the point of the Tri-X cooler.

What case do you have? I would recommend the Kraken X41, but due to it's 140mm size, I don't know if it will fit in your case.

I have the H440, it's in my tag, but I would prefer 120mm since I ordered a bunch of 120mm Corsair fans that are currently being RMA'd.

Anyone else willing to weigh in?

Sorry, went out to eat. I don't know much about 120mm CLCs, but I have heard good about the Kraken X31.

Standard clc used with a g10 is Corsair h-55, it fits the mounting profile on the g-10 is a slim 120mm rad, and works well, even on a heat beast like a 290x
