Phanteks PH-TC12DX 120mm PWM CPU Cooler http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=35-709-018

 

Phanteks PH-TC14PE 140mm UFB (Updraft Floating Balance) CPU Cooler http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=35-709-001

 

Going for an all white build.   It'll be a skylake cpu with 32gb ram.  I want it to look good and to be able to see everything through the phanteks enthoo primo case window but noise control is important as well.  Thoughts?   Really torn between these two.
