Best AIO CPU Cooler?

Looks are subjective. There are better fans like the Aerocool DS which usually isn't worth the money. If you're going to upgrade the fans, look at NF-A14's or Akasa Apache/Hyperboreas, or Cougar Vortex.

Thanks I would to say for colours, I would to made a red/black case (h440) with white led light inside

Aerocool ds how is compared with corsair?

It depends which Corsair fans you're referring to. Aerocool DS fans perform similarly to the fans on the h80i or h100i while being quieter--similar to Akasa Apaches/Rosewill Hyperboreas or the Cougar Vortex.

Thank you for your patience, well

I see corsair af/sp for look, I see a lot of build red/black with these fans

I would to change the rear case fan and top radiator fans with fans that look nice (for a h440 red and black and a white led light inside)

But with better performance and quiet of stock h440 and x61 fans

There aren't really any outstanding red and black fans. You're probably going to have to choose between better fans and the red/black aesthetic.

Ok, how are PH-F140HP?

And for better fans like that you suggested which are best money/performance?

Those are nice fans but they use 120mm mounting holes and probably wouldn't properly fit on any rad without some adapters or some awkward placement. 

Do black fans not fit your theme?

Not are 140mm?

Yeah but I prefer red/black, which are black?

How are stock fans of case and radiator in general? If they are good I thinking to change color theme and don't buy other fans

They are 140mm fans with 120mm mounting holes.

The Akasa Apaches/Rosewill Hyperboreas I recommended are black.

Like I mentioned, the stock x61 fans are fine.

They're also fine although slightly less suited than the rad fans.

I'll build it a little at a time, (do you recommend me a list to order? For example first thing case and last cpu)

I would to start with a quieter but performance pc

I don't have much experience, in my first and last build I saw only lights (I have a aplus twin engine, a tagan psu etc)xD

Now I want something good as performance and as quiet and looks great but without lights everywhere

If stock fans of case and of aio are quiet and work good maybe I keep them but if for performance or for quiet not are so good I change now. In this way I don't need to screw nothin in future)

Sorry for my eng

Order everything you need first and wait to see what you might need afterwards.

Use the case's fan hub or the motherboard if you want to control them through software--take your pick.

I don't need a controller fan to make it quiet?

If in future I'll make a custom liquid system I can recycle the aio? I thought to use it for gpu and the custom for cpu or link them if it's possible

A lot of motherboards have some sort of built in fan control although at times more limited than a dedicated solution. 

The x61 is a closed loop and cannot be expanded to cool other components. You'd need an aio like the h240x which can be expanded upon and comes with an appropriately powerful pump to do so.

Thanks, but if I start with the x61 for cpu and in future make a custom ek system, and the x61 go for gpu, is a good choice for you?

The x61 is pretty overkill for just cooling the gpu. You might as well get the H240x and expand that to include your graphics card.

Personally, I'd say: Get the Cooler Master Nepton 280L, and buy two Noctua A-14 PWM Industrial PPC fans.

I couldn't find any local retailers. 

However, you could do international shipping: http://www.amazon.com/Cooler-Master-Glacer-240L-Expandable/dp/B00GJYNM4M/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1415565596&sr=8-6&keywords=h220

The 240L is just a modified H220 and can be similarly expanded on.

The 280L can't be expanded like the 240L.
