Hello Guys

 

I'm having a bit off a dilemma. i've been upgrading my PC lately, mainly stuff like swapping out my case, gettting new Fans getting more storage  but also swapping out my Mainboard.

Now all thats left i want to upgrade is my CPU cooler. I'm currently running a H60 from Corsair(more System details below).

Temps are not the Reason why i want to swap it out, as im having around 60 Degrees under heavy load which is barly reached.

The Reason why i want to swap it out is looks. I know it might me stupid but I'm sure you all can agree that a custom Water Loop just looks awesom.

I do not want to Water cool my GPU because i want to be able to easly swap out my Graphics Card.

I now need to decide between a  Corsair Hydro H115i  or a Custom Water Loop.

The Corsair one costts about 300 Bucks less than the cooling loop i want to have .

But the Custom loop would give me a much more Orange look that i want to have,

Do you guys think the look of a custom loop is worth the money or am i just crazy even thinking about it?

Thanks for your Oppinions and I hope my English is good enough.

Regartds

Worth the money is entirely up to you.  If you have the money for it, and you want it, spending the money on it is not going to hurt you financially, then I would say it's worth it.

 

My opinion might be biased though.. I've spent more on a custom loop than some spend on their entire pc :S
