"Big" water cooling job

Hello,

I have a fx-8350 and want to over clock it to the max. I have a HAF-X case which supports a 360mm radiator. I would love to have one. I also haven't found a 360mm kit, I can build a water cooling loop, but I would rather not. If you have a list of parts for me or a kit you found, it would b very helpful to post them below. My budget is 200-250 USD. Thank you

What @Oshino Shinobu recommended, or you could try to find a Swiftech H-220X or H-240X and add a radiator to it.

That would work too, just add a radiator to it, it's expandable.

I agree with the recommendation of H220x or H240x by Swiftech.

 

Alphacool makes a few "custom" loop kits that have 360mm rads, everything you need, a detailed guide for setup, and it's within your budget. You would have to put it together yourself though.

Overclocking an 8350 to any degree should require some sort of liquid cooling. As others have said, the Swiftech AIOs are really nice quality. They're also expandable, which means you wouldn't be stuck with a 240mm rad the whole time. That being said, you really won't need a 360mm rad for a single CPU loop. That's the general amount of dissipation that you want on 3 block loop
