Hello friends
There are basically 3 types of Coolers :
1. High End Air Coolers
2.All in one Water Cooler
3.Custom Water Cooler.

As I have said I m only Overclocking my CPU(not my Graphics Card, for Ram maybe in future)
So which type of cooler is enough only for CPU Overclocking(4.0 GHZ to 4.7 or 5.0GHZ OVerclocking)

there's 2 ways I see this going.

A a really weird Custom loop cooling your CPU/RAM however if you have Gkill Ram they give you Air coolers with their extremely high end RAM.

Personally I would go with air cooling your RAM over a custom loop.

For this I would take a LP CPU cooler: AIO water cooling or a smaller heatsink such as a Noctua Low profile sink! then take a cooler from your RAM manufacture if they provide one.

The best you can afford. High end air coolers can perform about as well as AIO coolers for less money, but the AIO coolers usually take up less space and make less noise. For more performance, you need to look into custom loops, but those tend to cost quite a bit more.
