Hi guys.I want the best cooler for this gaming rig speaking of performance and compatibility.
Rig:
CPU:Intel i7-4790k
M.B.:Gigabyte z97x gaming g1 bk wifi
RAM:Corsair VengeancePro red 16 GB Cl9 2133mhz
Case:Corsair Graphite 760t
Which cooler do you recommend me?I was thinking at a Corsair Hydro h110 with noctua Af15 140mm fans.What do you think?

Actually there is a very slim chance of leakage with corsair liquid coolers and if there is a leakage and that damages other parts of the system corsair takes the total responsibility for the damage but there is always a chance of pump getting bad but the cooler comes with 5 years of warranty.
The best cooler for under 70$ would be the Noctua NH-D14:

Of course, if you're looking for something under 40$, then the 212 EVO would be my choice:

If you have the room in your case for the Corsair AIO, it would be a good choice for the money. I have a C60 (120mm) in one machine and a 212 EVO in another. Cooling seems about equal, so the 240mm AIO should be even better. Be sure to follow the instructions for fan direction for best results.
 

I wouldn't recommend CLC kits as they have a chance of leaking ir having the pump or water block fail. Would you risk your entire system for a 100$ cooler? I wouldn't.
