Air Cooling vs Water Block

Guest

I am planning on upgrading my PC. Part list here: http://au.pcpartpicker.com/p/g7kdsY

I am currently planning on getting the H110i GTX, but was worth it to get air cooling instead. There is a pretty large price difference and wanted to know what the temp difference was? I live in Australia and it is fairly hot here...

I noticed many of people have the H100 series and was wondering if it was worth it for the water cooling. I am not overclocking, but plan on content creation so I need it fairly silent. If I go with air cooling, I will get the Cooler Master Hyper 102/103

If you want a kickass, silent aircooler, Be Quiet! Dark Rock Pro 3 is around 80USD.

Cryorig r1 ultimate , basically a better looking nd-d15

Or the no-d15, but I'm not biased at all.

Honestly, for me I went air cooling because the sound of air going through rad fins sounded bad imo
