I want to do some good overclocking of my intel i5 4690k amd I would like to know If anyone one can suggest a water cooling setup as close to $50 as possible

I have an Anet A8 as my project printer and a i3 MK3 for when I want things to work. 

 

I extrude my own filament and haven't saved a penny yet.

 

 

My PC:

Spoiler

CPU: Intel i7 8700k

Motherboard: MSI Z370-A Pro

RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws V (2x8GB) DDR4-3200

GPU: GTX 1070 Founders Edition (OC'd)

Storage: 2x 2TB Seagate 5400RPM, 128GB ADATA SSD

Power Supply: EVGA Supernova 750w  B2

Cooling: Noctua NH-D15. 3 Intake Fans, 2 Outtake

Case: Fractal Design Define R6

An air cooler would be better at this price point, or you can always go the Aliexpress route and make a custom loop for less than 50 rupees( Not recommended though)

 

I looked around and found a setup for water cooling for around $75 would it be better to just get a good fan for that price?

If you have enough clearance in your case, i would go for a high end air cooler, it will perform better than the H75

Ok any suggestions?

http://pcpartpicker.com/part/phanteks-cpu-cooler-phtc14pebk for 75, really nice cooler

http://pcpartpicker.com/part/noctua-cpu-cooler-nhd15 Over budget, but great quality

http://pcpartpicker.com/part/be-quiet-cpu-cooler-bk018 If you care about looks, although the phanteks also looks good and it is cheaper
