r5 with window? if yes, get r5, its silent and with that window it looks gorgeous.. depends on your overclocking.. r5 has more cooling options.

for air build get S

it's totally open in front so it has excellent airflow (all the drives are moved to the back, while in R5 they are in front)

it's also very silent
