I need a budget cooling system for my gaming pc that will keep the CPU and video card at a low temp.

I need the cooler to be able to keep the PC at a low temp when overclocking. I am hoping to keep the pc quiet and on a budget. I don't want to spend over 100 dollars. Hopefully this is possible. My PC is in the link below.

if you want to keep both pc and gpu cool, you will need a full custom liquid-cooling loop, that can cost up to 300$.

MSI's Twin Frozr is already a good cooler so it will keep the gpu fairly low temps.

For cpu, you can find 240mm AiO Liquid-cooler from Corsair. H100i GTX is good one. And it's only slightly over 100$ (around 110-120$ usually)
Other choice is a single 120mm radiator AiO liquid-cooler like H80i GT. To which you can then buy better fans. (Noctua NF-F12 IndustrialPPC-2000 or EK-WaterBlocks Vardar F4-120)

Will a 240mm cooler fit in my build, and is it worth it for my build or will a 120mm radiator keep it cool by itself?

What kind of OC are you expecting? The Hyper 212 EVO cools well (better than most all 120 AIO liquid coolers) and is inexpensive (about $30-35), pretty much need a H100 or better in an AIO to beat it up to an OC of about 4.6

I have the corsair h110 on a haswell chip and I run nice temps OC to 4.4ghertz.

I am not familiar with OC. If you could explain that would be amazing. I am very familiar with other computer parts just nothing with cooling. All I really need is something to make sure my system does not overheat when overclocked. I can adjust the case to fit 120 or 240mm. What would you recommend to cool an i7-4790k?

Thanks for all of the help I hope to see your reply!

OC just means Over clocking.

OC just means Over clocking.

He knows that, overclocking is just a bit new to him, I guess.

Yes OC is overclocking - AIO is for an All In One liquid cooler, and the Phantom can handle AIOs
