Help for a first time watercooler

Hi, I was looking for some advice on watercooling, I am a first time watercooler and I was looking to make a custom loop, for just my CPU, for under $100 dollars, it is to cool my new AMD FX 8350. So I was looking for  some suggestions for a loop. Thank you in advance!

That is going to be really hard. You should go for a H140X, and expand.

No point in going full custom loop to just cool your CPU anymore. You'd be better off with an all in one unit.

I would suggest a corsair aio. Just for a cpu at $100, Its not worth. $100 is not enough to beat a aio looks and temps
