Help with cooling...again

Hello,

 

I need you help once again. 

First of all sorry if I created this on the wrong section, but my question is about air and water cooling.

 

Asrock xtreme 4
I7 377K
Asus GTX780
XFX 650 xtr

 

So, I changed house, and during the moving process, I removed my Noctua nh-u14s to avoid uneccesary pression when moving the case around, but there was a bit of an incident when moving the case.

 

To a long story short, but of the side panels of my case dont close correctly and the noctua as a bunch of metal fins broken....

 

I contacted Fractal but they don't ship spare parts to my country, so i have no other choice but to buy a new case and cooler.

 

I've been glancing the phanteks enthoo pro, and thinking of getting a water cooling like the corsair h80i gt, but i've been reading that the pump of AIO coolers makes a lot of noise, but maybe those were just defective units.

 

So my question is, should i get a AIO cooler and wich one would you advised, or should I go with air cooling again? (the nh-u14s was good but it made some pression on my ripjaws rams, so I need something that doens't do that)

 

Also I'm not planning on doing overcloking

 

Thanks in advance (and sorry for bad english, not main language)

Is it really unrepairable?

I'm guessing you had a MidTower case so this might be of some interest to you. The Enthoo Pro M with acrylic full sized side panel.

What are the diferences between that and the Pro?

Yes sadly. I tried everything but both panels are broken for good...

 

120mm AiOs aren't worth it. Even some 240mm AiOs are outperformed by the NH-D15 xD

 

But would it fit well it mine ripjaws?

Lucky noctua really thought about that one they made a cut-out for extra tall memory sticks so u should be able to run the D15 with the rip jaws. although I don't know if u can have the front fan installed at the same time

Well luckily the fan from the U14S is still in good shape, so I can just buy nh-d15s (it only brings one fan so its cheaper) and then try it out

 

Size

 

Pro M Acrylic  - 235 x 480 x  500mm - mid size tower ( with full window panel)

Pro - 235 x 535 x 550 mm - full tower ( split window design)

 

The Pro Acrylic is also a bit cheaper, so i might actually go to that one

That would be a very good option
