Corsair Vs. NZXT

[Windows10Home]

I am building a budget overclocking build, with the 6600K. I was thinking of overclocking to 4.6 GHz. I narrowed the cooler down, and the ones that were left was: Corsair H80i V2 and NZXT Kraken X61

Which is better?

The X61 is better by a landslide.

Or should I use all my money going for a Fractal Design Kelvin S36?

I would stick with the X61. A custom loop would be preferable to an S36 IMO.

LGA 1150 and 1151 have the same mounting holes.

All of the LGA 115x sockets use the same mounting system. It will fit.
