Watercooling under €150

Briannnn

Preferably around €120.

I'm going to try to OC my 3570k (it's 4.5ghz) more. My current case and cooler is mediocre while my GPU and CPU are very high end. plus I have money to blow. I'm at kinda bad temps with air and at the limit. Anyone have a good option for water cooling? I'm looking for something quiet and effective. Should fit on the Thermaltake Chaser A71 (I don't have this case just yet)

I was looking at the Corsair H110. I can't find any official lists that indicate what size radiators the Chaser A71 supports. Can someone help me out here? It's only €91 on hwvs compared to its €110-150 competitors.

p.s: If there's a better case available I'll go for it but I should be spending a max of 200 on the case+cooler..using geizhals.de I can save 10-15 too:)

thanks

edit;
The Chaser A71 doesn't support 280mm radiators so I'm thinking of this:
Core V71 and corsair H110 = €210

Redfox25

A better case will help alot.
consider the nanoxia 1 or two. Might be no need to watercool then.
The evo cooler for 20 euro is cheap and performs well.
105 odd for case, 20 odd for cooler. Try rjose first, then if temp or noise is too much, go for water cooling.
a good airflow in a case helps with temps. How is your current cable management in your current case?

h100i is 99.90 and not a special item.

I'd also recommend the DS1 case from Nanoxia.

I heard the H100 and H100i get super loud with the pump and the H110 fixed that problem. I just checked out what that website means by "special item".... B grade/a returned item.."special item" makes it sound like on sale or limited lol

Yeah I'm kinda looking to show off the insides of my PC (side window) because it's really well managed (cable management) and I have a really good GPU and the colour scheme is similar. I am looking into something around this line
because it has huge, quiet fans, looks nice af and has room for water cooling in the future (incase the fans aren't enough when I OC even more)

My current case is making my GPU run 12*C hotter than it should be at (72*C average in BF4, I get 77-82*C) and I only have 1 120mm fan slot left. I borrowed the one from my dad's case to see if it would make a difference and it lowered the CPU/GPU temps by like 3*C

so basically i need advice on a quiet, effective water cooler for the future and advice on a proper a** case with huge fans and stuff for before I get the water cooling (if I even do)

Another +1 for the DS1 here. I didn't have any issues with heat in my previous case (an old Antec P900), but having got the DS1 for sound dampening reasons (which it has definitely helped with), I've noticed a drop in temps by 5 degrees (running a 2500k i5 at stock and 2 6950s)

If you buy one of the loud dodgy h100's they'll replace it with a h110 for free.. which is what I've been planning on doing for the last two years.. must get around to calling them up to do an advance rma..

Briannnn

But the h100 is 240mm while the h110 is 280mm so a h100 case wouldn't support a h110
but a h110 case would support the h100

so I suppose ill get a case with 280mm and a window and really good cooling
but which one? o.O

Briannnn

With geizhals.de that'll be €221~

So a class case full of quiet fans (will use 3 from my current case, 2 on the bottom and 1 for push/pull on the air CPU cooler - and a second 200mm for the empty top)

No liquid cooling, probably won't need it with so damn many fans.
thanks for the advice, if i didn't get it I probably would have gotten liquid cooling for €80 more and would have only marked off 5-10*C more than I will mark off now

p.s: the 650w is to relieve my current 500w.. I'm using 480/500w while in load and the extra fans + LEDs and future upgrades would rise that past 500w
