Hello

For my new gaming build I am choosing to go for a mid-high range air cooler - The system is around £1600 for budget

I am wondering which is best out of those two air coolers to implement?

Theres some pretty good reviews for both of the air coolers, but I'm not sure what to go with, the very reliable trusted Phantek cooler or the Havik which has two 140mm fans rather than 120mm fans aswell as two more heat pipes

Thanks alot,

For overclocking I always chose quality, and try not to save on the important parts of the build. I think better to be safe with a water cooling, so never have to worry about overheating. Thermaltake water cooler is okay, but I much more prefer Corsair Hydro series.

When they compared, the Havik got the gold medal, Phanteks got the silver. So there is no big difference between them.
So if I were u I would be totally confused,both are great. (be sure they fit ur case).

Just as an afterthought, the reviews look pretty good but how will they fair in overclocking

I'm hoping to overclock an i7 4770k to around 4.3-4.5ghz

Will these fans be enough for that?
I was previously looking at the Thermaltake Water 2.0 Pro but it seemed a little overkill, would that be a better choice, i'm not too keen on a very heavy load hanging on my motherboard with the heavy air coolers
