CPU Watercooling Kit

[PANZERSHREKS]

I'm looking to build a PC with a i5-4670k CPU, MSI Z87-GD65 mobo, Asus GeForce GTX 780 GPU. I intend to air cool the PC except for the CPU, which I would like to watercool. Anybody have recommendations for a watercooling kit which is of a good quality, at a reasonable price (Prefably fitting the red theme of the PC)? And perhaps some help choosing an adequate power supply which would support the watercooling kit as well as the other parts. Need help as this is the first PC I am building and am rather new at this.

Hello and welcome to the fourm. How about you tell us a budget and your location and we will put together something for you. Also what are you going to be using the pc for? Enjoy your stay.

Buy an AIO. There should be no need to factor in power consumption of water cooling unless you're doing something beyond exotic.

Water cooling CPU only is pretty pointless, especially if, figuratively, you have no idea if your chip even lifts

Avoid water cooling kits like the plague, 80% of them suck. If you're going to do water cooling don't half ass it, do it right. Full loop, good parts, or stick with air or AIO. I would also advise against doing water cooling on your first build.

There is no specific retailer that I will be buying from. I am able to easily find the majority of my selected parts locally but as for water cooling kits and other water cooling parts, there is little information provided by local retailers, so I will probably be buying the watercooling system online if it is not locally available
