Well one is an all in one water cooler, and the other an air cooling.
Is your cpu getting to hot?

Nope. I've already ordered both so I'm just thinking that by using the Noctua fans versus the Corsair fans that come with the H110, I'll get better cooling performance with water cooling while also keeping the noise somewhat low?

The Corsair fans are noisy at full speed but shouldn't have to run full speed. They aren't bad fans but the noctua fans are good fans.
It's mostly personal preference. They are the same just the noctua fans are quieter.

Ah. Well I guess I'll just try it out anyway.
On an off-topic note, i took my HAF X side panel window off to clean it and when I tried to put it back on, the pins bent. Already ordered a new one but my LED's are off and I had to duct tape some newspaper to keep dust from getting in the opening. Stupid messy plastic glass >.< So far I haven't noticed much of a temperature problem with the newspaper though.. I thought I would since it's so light but maybe 1 or 2 degrees difference from the actual window... Oh well.
Yup. 40 dollars (after shipping) for a replacement so I don't think I'll even bother taking off the plastic protective stuff.. Plus I need to go buy some double sided tape for my LED's because this all started trying to clean up duct tape residue left on the surface of the metallic side panel trying to hold down the LED's. Once I get all that, my build shall be unstoppable
I just love LED's...

Haha. Well the way my case is set up (on the left of me), I can only see the red LED fan in the front and I can see the LED's in the case from the drive bay meshes, but it definitely isn't a bother to me. The biggest bother to me is not having everything the same color. My GFX card is yellow, but I got it for almost 100 less than retail so i can't complain about it I guess.
