Hey there..
I am getting an :-
I7 8700k@4.8ghz
Gtx 1070ti
16gb ddr4@3200mhz

I was asking, if a NZXT KRAKEN x62 is a good cooler for an 8700k@4.8ghz?? If so, honestly, is it better than a corsair h115i, which is also 280mm like the x62, but is a bit cheaper..... Plzz answer.... Which one is better??
 
Solution
They both are able to handle the the i7 8700K even at higher OC.
I have installed both and they perform very similar.
If you like RGB go with the NZXT Kraken X62 otherwise go with the less expensive Hydro Series H115i.
The Corsair is a little less noisy.

Solution
X62 it's a great cooler. I use it on my 6700K OC at 4.6Ghz.
It's quality built too.

Corsair AiO's have had a nasty reputation of failing often and needing to be RMA'd.
And the pump speed, fan, and flow design internally is not quite as good as the X62.

Just be sure to get the revision 2.0 and not the original one.
