H100i GTX is a good one.

I've been running this Thermaltake NiC L31 air cooler since my G3258 days, and its just not enough to keep my 4790K at decent temps under load.  So, I've decided to get an AIO.  The problem is, I've never done anything beside air cooling before, and my case's page doesn't exactly give many details on what kind of cooler I can fit in there.  All it says is "240mm Radiator in front", which doesn't tell me anything on how thick it can be, etc.  They do list compability for my case on the Neptom 240M page, but since I barely know anything about radiators or liquid cooling in general, I'm not sure if thats a good enough cooler, or if there are any better value ones.

CPU: Intel Core i7-4790K, GPU: MSI GTX 960 GAMING 4G, Cooler: Corsair H100i GTX, SSD: Samsung 850 EVO 250GB, RAM: Corsair Vengeance 24GB 1600, Mobo: MSI Z97A GAMING 6, HDD: WD Green 3TB, PSU: Corsair RM650

HP ENVY dv7-7200, CPU: Intel Core i7-3630QM, GPU: GeForce GT 650M, HDD: Toshiba 500GB 7200rpm, RAM: Generic 16GB DDR3-1600

Apple MacBook Pro Retina 13" Early 2015, CPU: Intel Core i5-5257U, GPU: Integrated Iris Graphics 6100, SSD: 256gb PCIe Apple SSD, RAM: Onboard 8gb DDR3-1866
