get an H100i. maybe drop the RAM speed a bit if only gaming. What case? (but i guess the one in your sig.)

[Signex]

Can't fit a h100i, i have 2x 140mm in the front.

 

Correct, i use the one in the sig, HAF XB.

[iAsuno]

then why don't do a custom loop? or do you plan on modding?

[Andi]

if you overclock your memory won't run higher than 1866, probably only at 1600. So if you want to overclock don't buy 2133ram

It's out of my budget, and i've never done custom watercooling.

[iAsuno]

what was the 2x140mm? or were they fans?

[Signex]

Yes, 2x 140mm fans in the front, but i don't think this case is 140mm compatible cause i can't get the front cover to properly close.

it would be nice for you to have an h100i since haswell gets hot and all. but it's your choice.

 Hot? I thought they improved that over the previous generation.

 

Same with power consumption.

 

But i'm not overclocking it that high.
