I chose the H75 for the aesthetics but if this is more efficient it is going to be seriously considered

well Corsair pumps lately have been famous for failing and causing the CPU to overheat very fast

 

with air cooler less headaches and more silent

If you're concerned about aesthetics but wish to consider an air cooler you could look at Be Quiet's line up.

Were they always like that?

[dragoon20005]

Were they always like that?

Corsair replied it is an isolated case but IMO 

 

I will not take the risk of buying their coolers

Ok I'm going to take a look at the air coolers you guys pointed out and some others

I'm not sure if the nhd15 will fit. The 230T only supports only CPU coolers with a max height of 165mm. You could get the Kraken X31 if it is available yet.

The X31 is still available and it will be considered
