Hi um just wondering what do you guys think of the h100 vs Water 2.0 Extreme

h100 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835181017&Tpk=h100

i'm upgrading from a evo 212 to a water cooler will there be at list 10-15C decrees from a 212 to a h100 or Water 2.0 extreme on a i7 2600k/i5 2500k .Do you guys think it will fit on a RAIDMAX AEOLUS http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811156252&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-Cases%20(Computer%20Cases%20-%20ATX%20Form)-_-Raidmax-_-11156252&AID=10440897&PID=3938566&SID=

i also feel like buying a new case so i wont need to upgrade in the future, any suggestion 150$ max budget and on a liquid cooler 130$ max budget.

thanks for the help.

If you check the sticky out up top, take your time and do things right, there is no reason that it could, or would leak,
You may find a 360 tough to squeeze inside there, it could be tight on the front panel (which is mounted on the top)
had you considered a topmount for the rad?
It requires a bit of modding but nothing too heavy :)

No problem!

I would say go with a high-end Air cooler and be done otherwise you could try a Kit from XSPC.

Ya and I am not sure if the H100 or 2.0 would fit??? I have no experience with your case...Sorry!

You might be able to mount the rad from the XSPC kit outside the case it has pre drilled holes for the tubing to exit and enter??? This would give it all the fresh air it wants. Just an idea...

i looked at the wins dragon liked the side panel cos i can add 4 120mm fan but i still kinda like the Antec DF-85 Black Steel / Plastic ATX Full Tower witch 1 would pull out more air? if i do get a new case should i go with this rasa kit http://www.frozencpu.com/products/11743/ex-wat-159/XSPC_Rasa_750_RS240_Universal_CPU_Water_Cooling_Kit_-HOT.html#blank
or something bigger like this http://www.frozencpu.com/products/12222/ex-wat-162/XSPC_Rasa_750_RS360_Universal_CPU_Triple_Radiator_Water_Cooling_Kit_Hot_Item.html and if i stay with the current case i should get the rasa rs240 ? thanks for all your help :).

When I say on top, I mean like this,

I don't mean inside at the top, I mean actually on top of the case, so if you feed the tubing through the grommets at the back, or can drill two 19mm holes underneath the rads ports then you're fine
Thank you for B.a. and post back anything else we can help with,
P.S. as a Rider owner, I expect a build log with pics ok? :)
