Intel Core i7-3770K & water cooling

I have an ASUS P8Z77-M PRO motherboard, an Intel Core i7-3770K CPU and a Cooler Master Storm Trooper PC box! I'd like to ask you what the best water cooling for my system is!
 
Depends on how extreme you want to make it. Sure, we could recommend stuff like 2 360mm rads and a highend pump and such, but that also costs a lot. If you want something maintenance free and not very expensive, you could look into the Corsair Hydro series.
 

Could you give me the best for around 150 euro?

 


The Kraken x60 has a dual 140mm rad. So unless he can fit 2 140mm fans in the top, it won't fit.

 


Indeed it does. However, his case of choice is specifically named as compatible: http://www.nzxt.com/Download/Kraken%20Case%20Compatibility%201.1.pdf
 
In that case the x60 is an option to consider too. It's quite more expensive than the H100i in the Netherlands though, about €45.

Since we don't know where jnjnilson6 is from, there's no telling what the prices for both units are there.
 


Indeed. I had been wondering about that. With most people, their currency gives it away, but the Eurozone messes that up a bit.
