Hey All,

 

I am looking at the Mastercase Pro 5 and it only supports up to a 240mm Rad in the Top bracket.

 

What would people suggest for the best 240mm AIO Cooler?  I am looking at either of these Corsair options (http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835181090 or http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835181060) or the Thermaltake240 Riing RGB (http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835106391).  Which one would you buy?

 

Any other suggestions?

the Corsair H100i v2 is an updated version of the GTX. As for the H105, it is a thick 240mm radiator so make sure your case/motherboard can clear it. you can also look into something like an H110i GTX which is a 280mm cooler for usually $5-10 more

Coolermaster Nepton 240m

Ive had it for almost a year now and with a 4.7Ghz OC on my CPU it keeps temps at 60c while its fans are at 800rpm

(if u need proof i can send screenshots :3)

You also have a G3258. Any 240mm cooler could keep that thing whisper quiet and frozen

Like i said earlier, the H105 will offer the best cooling no questions asked because it is a thicker radiator, you just have to make sure you motherboard will be compatible in the case with it. The H100i v2/GTX are great options

If you have the space, the EK-XLC Predator 240 is a great unit, but you'll need 68mm of clearance, more where the tubes and fittings are.

You also can't go wrong with the Cooler Master Nepton 240m, Corsair H100i V2, or Swiftech H220 X or H220 X2 (although you'll need a lot of clearance for the H220's due to the reservoir/radiator combo).

 

The Predator and H220's are also unique AiO's, they're preassembled using components for custom loops, so you could add onto them if you wanted.

Come Bloody Angel

Break off your chains

And look what I've found in the dirt.

 

Pale battered body

Seems she was struggling

Something is wrong with this world.

 

Fierce Bloody Angel

The blood is on your hands

Why did you come to this world?

 

Everybody turns to dust.

 

Everybody turns to dust.

 

The blood is on your hands.

 

The blood is on your hands!

 

Pyo.

I havent seen the EK stuff, that would be perfect, except the MasterCase Pro 5 can only fit a standard size 240mm Radiator in the top, that's what it looks like anyway.  The Predator would not fit in that.
