Air or watercooling

[Letharas]

Should i go for air or water cooling?   Then i have an other question, should i go for an window case or a closed?

[Letharas]

I already have gpu lightning and that shit but maybe it will get louder bcs of the window

if you have the money you can get nice temps on water, but air is normally enough for most things.

If you arent ofraid of potencial water leaks and you have the money go watercool that pc!

 

ps definetly get a a case with a window

that really depends on a multitude of questions that if you could answer for me that would be great.

1. do you plan on overclocking?

2. What is your budget?

3. Are you talking about hardline cooling? or just a regular watter cooler like a corsair?

4. Are you willing to deal with a little bit of fan noise should you decide to get an air cooler? The Cooler Master Hyper series coolers are renowned for their low noise as well as being better than a stock cpu cooler all around, but a high performance cooler like a noctua will generate allot more noise especially when overclocking and stress testing.

if you're pushing oc's as far as possible and still need low noise, there's no replacement for how well liquid cooling performs. 

Otherwise, air cooling is usually cheaper and can get quieter than liquid cooling ever could.

A solid side panel might lower noise a bit compared to a window but that is sometimes not always the case depending. If you're not sure, get whichever is cheaper.

I agree, but to the op, if you are not going to do an insane overclock, don't waste your money on a high end water cooler. You can get a cooler master hyper 212 which is unmatched in price to performance, weather for the sake of quietness or for minor overclocks.

Depending on where you're shopping/located, there can definitely be better coolers at a similar price.
