hey guys.....
I'm going to water cool my CPU and I was going to go with the rasa 240-750 for 129.99
But I guess frozen CPU has stoped caring it cause I can't find it any more.I don't have much money left over from my budget to put together a good custom cooling set up right now,I'll do that later on down the road.I have been lookn at two closed looped cooling kits,the corsair h100 and the thermaltake 2.0 ,both have there good points and bad,but I wanted to get you guys opinion on the matter before I pull the trigger on the order.....thanks for all your help:thumb:

In closed loop WC, nothing beats H100 for the price. It has many nice features like temp probes that can be located at different parts of the system for monitoring different areas. Recommended from my side.

It's own fans are quite good, but may make a little noise on full speed. If you want better fans, Cougars CF series are great fans for giving excellent air flow (CFM) and at a very low audible tone:

Gentle Typhoon AP-15 fans are also very good with balancing silent operation and cooling with their high static pressure rating.
