Hello guys I am thinking to overclock but I am concerned about cooling issues and I need some help.

I use a Corsair Carbide 500R
And a Sapphire R9 290X

I have two choices for cooling:

XSPC Raystorm 750 Ax240 Kit with an EK full cover
Or
I will buy 2 Corsair H110 and a NZXT Kraken G10 to connect one H110 to my GPU.

There is no price issue since both configs will cost the same for me
 
Solution
is this your first pc build.
I was going to go custom loop for my 1st pc built but all that water next to all this expensive pc components scared me away. so I got me a corsair h110.
but if your not at all scared I heard that the swiftech h220 Is like both custom and closed loop. so you can cool your cpu and if you choose too you can also cool your gpu ( it comes with a reservoir and a pump so you can always add on). it is probably cheaper than 2 h110 and a nzxt g10. other wis go for the xspc raystorm. nad have someone helping you installing it.( be sure the quadriple check for leaks ).

What kind of case do you have? I'm assuming it's a big one or else you'll never be able cram those twh 240mm Radiator's into it. Furthermore, I've read Corsair CLCs use custom hookups so if it's not outright impossible to attach it to that NZXT part, it will more than likely be more trouble than it's worth.

Sorry, didn't see that you're working with a Corsair Carbide 500R. It might be doable but it's probably going to be a tight fit.
