So I will be purchasing an AIO liquid cooler, and my choices are between the Corsair H80i and the Cooler Master Seidon 120XL...

I will be running everything in stock, wanted to know which one would provide better cooling and less noise.. 

 

Any opinions on this would be most helpful...

 

Thanks

Crap! Both those fans are not available here... I can get either the Bitfenix Spectre Pro, Corsair AF120, Deepcool fans, Cooler Master Excalibur fans any of these worth buying or do I stick with the Stock fans?

That review is for the Seidon 120M, though, not the thick-rad 120XL.

Oh right, sorry did not notice that!!! How much of a difference would it make?

Makes a difference, but the cooler still doesn't shine compared to the others in its class.  H80i is still probably the best choice, since it seems to use some kind of voodoo magic to be a few degrees better than all the other single-rad AIO coolers.

 

I'm actually going to replace my Antec 920 with the H80i soon to see whether it makes a difference.
