Cpu Cooler, Am Picky

[KillerGirl]

So I've been told to change the cpu cooler that I have chosen for my new pc build, and  some people are telling me to get Air cooling cpu coolers, but i personal don't like them, they look too big and bulky and are going to way to heavy, from what i see, and you never know if a case can fit it, but in my opinion i don't like the look of them, and alot of people have told me not to buy the nzxt kraken, I chose that one because I like the pump cover, it looks cool and stylish, I also have found out by contacting nzxt that if i need a AM4 mount , that if i send the the receipt of purchase, and my info they will send me the mount for free, now lastly, i have been told by many people on here that corsair is the better choice, because its good and its cheap, now i have had a friend irl tell me, don't by anything from them because they are cheap, and not good quality, now i don't quite believe that, but am not sure what cpu cooler i should buy so I would just like alittle bit more help from the forms to help me choose, here is the pc part picker link if anybody needs to know any other info

Also please stop recommending different hhd's am happy with WD and don't want to choose something else, you know it to me is kind of suspicious when 1 tb from a good or fairly good company can cost you about 50 dollars, and than another company can give you 3TB for only 40 dollars, to me thats just nope i don't trust it something is wrong with it 

just like you all have your own personal choice, so do i, thank you

What res are you playing at

I would get the Kraken X52 (I got it to, you'll really like it)

Corsair ones are good, NZXT ones are good. They are the ones everyone uses and I don't see many rant threads going on about how terrible they are.

I WILL RECOMMEND ANOTHER HDD!

Seriously, black series is overpriced and Seagate is fine.

 

Plus you shouldn't look at parts as "how cheap they are"

I've ran a Corsair H100i for the past 4 years mounted to my 4670k. It runs cool and quiet with it, and with the fans at 'quiet mode' it runs at max 65c with a 30c ambient. 

 

Both Corsair and NZXT's watercoolers are based on designs from Asetek that they have licenced - it doesnt matter in terms of performance.

Corsair is a good brand.  Any tower style cooler will fit your case. Id recommend getting the Kraken x52. Id change your hard drive. Blacks only difference is additional warranty I think two years. Wd blue or seagate have 2tb variants for significantly less and just as reliable. Id step down the 1600x to the non x cause there is no difference

Heatsinks aren't any heavier than AIO's. Weight in and of itself shouldn't be an issue unless you have a problem with the system being too heavy.

Aesthetics are subjective and you might as well go with whatever looks good to you if you're choosing a cooler pure based on aesthetics.

If not, tell us what you're looking for in a cooler.
