Hi guys originally I was going for the Antec h2o kuhler 920. But then I saw Deepcool's maelstrom 240

Antec h2o kuhler 920 is currently sale

     Php 3,000 (66.83 USD)
While Deep cool Maelstrom is at --- Same price as Corsair H60

     Php 3,300 (73.51 USD)

 

is the $6.7 increase worth it? -- My budget is limited because I'll also by an SSD
 

I mean yeah from a 120mm rad to a 240 one. but, Im not sure of deepcool.
I generally know nothing about this brand. is it good? is it reliable? I saw some reviews, but I there's no reviews from famous peeps like Linus or JayzTwoCents
Its their first 240mm AIO cooler  and also the cheapest 240mm on the market

What will I buy?

If its the Maelstrom will it fit throught my case? ( Please do the calculations for me :D )

i currently using antec 920..i'm satisfied with their performance but u need to change the stock fans though, if not it will be so LOUD...it's really LOUD...

i live in asia and my i7 2600k OC 4.2 Ghz idle in 45 while gaming got 55-60..but when full load i got around 75-78..

 

for the deepcool i don't know how it performs but i think many people said it's a good one..

 

keep in mind that antec 920 is an old hardware though.. :)

Stock Fans are really that loud?  I have an FX-6300 so temps will be much higher compared to intel :v

it depends though, if u using it in extreme mode...it is really LOUD..it's like an engine sound..so horrible and i don't like it..if u want u can change the fans like me..i'm using corsair fans now..sounds better, eventhough it's also loud when max speed..
