the PRO's from water cooling. decent wattercooling will cool better then air cooling and make less sound. the cons. it's more expensive, especially if you dont get one of those all in one kits. but as you are going to get a corsair h105 or something alike, you dont have to worry about that. then another con. it can start leaking if it's faulty. but this doesnt happen alot.

the pro's from aircooling. it's cheaper. good aircoolers cool just as good as a medium watercooler (say the h70 or so). Then the cons. they blow hot air in your case. with watercooling you dont have this as it goes through the radiator. they mostly make more sound and take up alot more space.


on a side note. you should eb able to OC that i7 with a decent air cooler aswell.

the noctua d14 or d15 are very good aircooler.
