Hi there, just want to ask some questions...
I planning to rebuild my old pc, i already bought a Gigabyte GTX 970, FSP Hyper M 700W PSU and a Samsung EVO SSD
and want to buy a skylake I7 6700 CPU, with a cheap motherboard: Gigabyte GA-B150M-D3H
also i want to buy a water cooler like the Corsair H75 or the Corsair H80i
it's all in a Zalman Z11 plus Case

Will any of the coolers works with the motherboard and the CPU, and if yes, which is better?

Honestly with a non overclocked Chip, you would be wasting your money on a AIO. Just get yourself a Hyper 212 evo or a Cryorig H7 will give you even overkill cooling for a non overclockable chip.

Don't buy any 120mm AiO!!! I made this mistake for my build, they are usually loud and perform worse then a high end air cooler, which cost half or less of what those AiO´s are.

Also don't get a 970, you can get the 1060 for the same price but better performance.
