HI I am getting a core i5 4670k cpu. I will be overclocking it to a steady and stable speed.I want to buy a all in one or prebuilt water cooling system. I was wondering if I really needed a dual fan(240) radiator or if i could just get a 120mm single fan radiator. I know that the cpu's can get pretty hot so do i really need a 240 radiator or not
sorry i could find a cooling category so i just posted here
 
Solution
120mm radiators are beaten by most air coolers, for much less. Go 240mm or large air cooling, the latter being better typically.
