Hi people, im gonna build my first PC and i was thinking of using the NZXT H440 case and i have some questions about fans and CPU cooling. I have looked in to getting the corsair h100i or maby a single fan watercooler but i didnt know what was best. I have read it has some problems with airflow so should i use a 240mm or a 120mm watercooler? And can you recomend any good fans to have inte the spot where i dont put it?

The 240mm rads are much better, is not really worth buying a single 120mm cooler... The best fans are noctua's...

Ok thanks. I was going to go with the corsair sp 120 for the watercooler because the math the colour of my other stuff. And from what i can tell the black noctua ones are a lot more expensive

If you're going to build in an H440, why not get a Kraken X61? Much larger and all the branding will go together quite nicely.
