Corsair Hydro H55

Solution
The H60 is great, I can vouch for it. It is a bit better than the H55, and will cool any CPU nicely. A second fan for push/pull makes it even better, too.

Hey,

Yes it should be compatible. However it is a lower end closed loop cooler and for that price I would suggest a high end air cooler.

Do you plan on overclocking? What are your system specs?
If you want a decent air cooler, the Cooler Master Hyper 212 is a great deal. If you have a little more to spend then I would suggest something like a Noctua nh D14.

Hope this helps!

I don't have much experience with water cooling myself, but from all I've heard the cheap water coolers are a waste of money. A good air cooler is better than a cheap water cooler.

Well, I just need a decent low end water cooler and not a big bulky and loud air cooler
How about an H60? If not then Im going with the hyper 212

Bigger fans need less rpm to move the same amount of air so they are more silent and in a less annoying frequency. A good CPU cooler is not going to be very loud and most certainly more silent than stock cooling.

I know that, but I want the computer to look cool without some huge cooler in the middle of the motherboard, so water cooling is preferred. Is the Hydro H60 any better??
