Depending on case compatibility, either a 280mm (Corsair H110i GT/X or Kraken X61) or a good 240mm (Corsair H105, Enermax Liqtech 240, Corsair H100i GT)

Also, i would allocate some budget for fans, since most AIOs come with very loud fans, specially corsair.

There is no such thing as a 230 rad. Not in the last few years anyway. (miiiggghtt be wrong as im not really into any less common form factors.)

 

If you have the colossus as stated in another thread, you can (probably) fit a 240 (by120) in the top. I would recommend the h100i gtx but there are other options

Ok, when it says 230mm, it means it supports a 230mm fan, not rad. It supports a 240mm rad at the top, not sure at the front, it would make sense it supported a 280mm at the front but  can only confirm it supports a 240mm at the top. The Corsair H105 is pretty good, so is the Enermax Liqtech 240, and both are supported
