So, long story short, with my next pc build (which I plan on using a 6800k cpu) I want to get a triple rad AiO cooler (as interesting as it may be to just do a custom loop, that's too much of a headache)

 

Originally I was considering the Fractal Design Kelvin S36, but when I looked on Amazon they wanted over $350 (couldn't find any other listings). that's insane, considering I could make a custom loop, and maybe even add a gpu for that price.

 

So I was looking at other triple rad AiO's on pcpartpicker, other ones being this Deepcool one http://pcpartpicker.com/product/6qs8TW/deepcool-cpu-cooler-captain360

This thermaltake one http://pcpartpicker.com/product/YKFPxr/thermaltake-cpu-cooler-clw007pl12bla

there's a swiftech one, but it looks ugly as shit and I won't consider it.

 

So pretty much which one is the one to go with, the Deepcool one or the Thermaltake? I really do like the design of the Deepcool one, the black and red color will go with the case, motherboard, and gpu I have in mind. Although not sure on how good that product is.

 

Either way, I plan on replacing the fans on them with Fractal Design venturi fans. (most likely going to get 6 of them and do push/pull since the case will have a shit ton of room for it)

I would personally recommend the EKWB Predator 360. Best out there IMO bar none. EK is an industry leader in water cooling so you know its going to be great.

I'm sure it's good, but aesthetics is an important thing to me :/ not to mention it's almost $150 more than the other one

the fractal kelvin is not sold in the USA, due to the ASETEK patent restrictions.

only way i found was to 'frankenstein' a corsair/cooler master pump with an imported 360 aluminum radiator.

for the hassle/shipping, exhuming the correct parts and actual functioning, the degree of performance wasn't all that tangible. 6-8° over a h100i at balanced fan mode (4° on max fans).
