CPU Cooling solution

[JoeROFLCOPTER]

Hello,

So I recently did a complete PC overhaul, yet have yet to change my CPU Cooler. Right now I'm looking at two options;

The first option is a Coolermaster MasterLiquid ML120 v2. With this, I'd be able to have a 200mm Noctua fan mounted on top as I have a HAF XB.

My other option is a Noctua DH-15.

Price is not going to be an issue for me. 

Which would leave me with better temps?

Honestly I think it would be the air cooler, and in the long run, it will probably last longer and give you less problems. What kind of workload and what CPU are you using though?

Really a gaming rig. It'll be running AAA titles quite a bit.

Definitely go for the D15

What if I were to get the ML240 for the same price as the Noctua.
