Hey guys I just Completed My computer built.
Specs. are, A NEXT H440 case
AMD FX8350
RIP JAWS 16GB. 1600.
Sabortooth FX990 R2.
Cooler master 750v

I still have a stock cooler on, which does keeps the CPU temp. Around 35 degrees. But when I ran prime 95 to test the temp. It almost went up to 70 and I had to stop the test.

Which is the best water cooler for this case? n yes I will b over clocking it in near future (maybe 4.8)

Will cosair H105 OR H110 do the job?
Any suggestions?

They would both be great. If you are doing a lot of overclocking, the 280mm H110 would be the best. That case supports it as well.

Well it all depends on how lucky you get with the binning of your chip.
Since you stated that you'll be overclocking in future, you're most likely going to be looking at some kind of extravagant cooling system.

I know that I got unlucky with mine, and even with the H80i, I reach a comfortable thermal wall at 4.4GHz (a few degrees of headroom for sanity sakes), with only a tiny voltage bump.

Have you given air cooling some consideration? A top-end air cooler will aid an overclock and be about 10-20£ cheaper, but, they are rather large so case compatibility comes to mind.

Speaking of which, this is also a factor for liquid cooling. The H105 for example is a chunky rad, when you include the fans it can be quite a squeeze even in some of the best mid-towers, even worse if aiming for a push/pull config. With that said, it has the performance to back it up. Fantastic AIO.

The H110 has similar issues although it is a thin rad. You'll need to make sure you can fit 2 140mm fan mounts in the top (or anywhere else) in your case, if you can, and you have the clearance for a normal AIO, you should be golden.
Keep in mind however, that 140mm static pressure fans are slightly harder to come by than 120mm ones. The stock ones aren't all that great.
The pump/block is also slightly older now, but that shouldn't impact performance too much. (Probably something to look in to).

Don't forget there are other AIO companies out there, such as Swiftech, that's all up to you.
Depending on your chip 4.8GHz may be easy, or difficult to achieve even on the best of coolers.

To recap then, if your case can accommodate the H105 with its fans I say go for it. I kinda want to try that one myself. The H110 will also be good, but you may be better off saving some money and going for the H100i. It also has the advantage of having a much simpler mounting system for AMD sockets.
Other than AIOs and Air, you might also be interested in running for a full custom cooling set up. Much more cost and effort though.

Unlucky with yours? I hit a wall with my H105 past 4.3. I get WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR. I can get boot at 4.5 at 1.275 Volts and it is alright, no freezes, but the OS gives me the BSOD, UNLESS I give it 1.4 V or more. 4.6 takes 1.46.
