240 mm closed loop?

What is the best 240 closed loop water cooler? (Like the h100i) A friend is building a system with room for one, so if it really is better than a large heatsink then he wants to use it. FYI he will be using a 4670k overclocked to 4.2ghz so it isnt a TON of heat but still needs to be cooled

i9 25.6 GHz with NeuronThreading, 256gb 6000 MHz RAM, GTX 990 OC 3024MHz 12gb, Skeletal X99 motherboard, 1 Petabyte SSD, Fractal Design Humaniod R1 Case, Herbivore 10,000W PSU, Noctua NF16 LP Derma Cooler.

Probably the only Star Citizen player who is planning on a career in Journalism instead of piracy, mining, trading, exploration, military, station management, etc.

Generation 0: The first time you see this add 1 to the number and copy it into your sig. Consider it a social experiment.

A H100i would be enough for such a low overclock.

 

However, the H220 is the "best".

 

You could also consider Air Cooling as an option.

Feel free to PM for any water-cooling questions. Check out my profile for more ways to contact me.

I don't know much about air cooling but the infamous NH-D14 would be a good bet for a 4.2GHz overclock.
