So I'm looking to finally upgrade to liquid cooling and I narrowed down the choices to these two. Im pretty sold on the 100i but I do not know if the 105 will be significantly better. Im also looking to overclock my rig(3570k, gtx 670, cx500watt psu) but I do not know if these coolers will be an overkill, if its actually possible. Also, will the install be difficult with a already complete and running rig? Any suggestions and comments are appreciated.

the 105 is VERYYY slightly better than the h100i... but if $ is any consequence to you, save the $30 and get the h100i. the difference in temps is like 1 degree

difficult? well.. for us building enthusists, not at all. it's a 10 minute job. for someone else, maybe 30 minutes... b/c you're going to watch several youtube how to videos first before it all makes sense.

either way, you'll be fine.

I just figured with the mounting brackets needed for the install of radiator and fans and removal of thermalpaste and applying it and everything else it would take some time. But looking back at it, it is a very simple job. Thanks for the advice
