Get a cooler with a slim 120mm radiator such as the Corsair H60 or Cooler Master Seidon 120V

For that case I would get something like a H60 or H75.

For that case, you can use an NZXT Kraken X40 or Corsair H90. They're 140mm radiators, so you'd have to remove the drive cages to fit it in (not a problem if you use an SSD). H80i might work too. It's a thick radiator, so you might have to do the same thing. It comes with Corsair Link so you can monitor fluid temperatures and fan RPMs.

 

The H75 comes with two fans and its pump/CPU block is Asetek-based (not really relevant unless you want to put it on a graphics card with an NZXT Kraken G10 in a future build). Not that you can really fit both the fans in there. H60 uses a square block, so you can't do that. It also comes with one fan. Unless you plan to use the drive bays, those two don't really matter. Their differences are irrelevant to your build. Neither are very good performers.
