Hello everyone
I already placed an order from amazon

i7-5820K
Asus X99- Rampage V Extreme
Corsair 4*4 2666Hz C16
Samsung SSD
-Gtx970 Gigabyte
Corsair ram 750Watt
C.M Nepton 280L
--------------

But I tried to get NZXT Cracking X61

But it's always out of stock

Now am confused
, since these items will be shipped cross board to my Middle Eat country - i have known supplier here in My country (Kuwait)

He told me if you want to replace Nepton 280L with one of my available coolers (h100i -h110)

Or even airflow cooling (Noctua NH -D15)

So there is my question

1) Since I live in a hot place and turning on A>C usually in the summer Does it better to have air cooling or hydro liquid AIO cooling system

2) If I chose the ALO Liquid - what is the best (noting: i have now Nepton 280L)
280L or i have to replace it with my own supplier here with h100i or h110 ! ?

3) if i choose the air cooling system of course Noctua Nh-d15 will be the best ?


4) i have now Case NZXt Lexa S

i am thinking to replcae it with NZXT PHANTOM 820 In case of liquid cooling system otherwise does noctua Nh-d15 will be okay with Lexa S ! ?


PLease answer me A.S.A.P

Man you already have a great AIO if you have the 280L, it's one of the best AIOs and on par with or better than a Kraken X60/X61 http://www.hardwarecanucks.com/forum/hardware-canucks-reviews/65692-cooler-master-nepton-280l-cpu-cooler-review-5.html and http://www.overclock3d.net/reviews/cases_cooling/cooler_master_nepton_280l_review/5. An H100i or Nh-d15 would be a step down, honestly I wouldn't bother replacing the 280L unless you do a custom loop. What are the temps in your house/room during the hottest part of the year? PcPartpicker shows the NZXT Phantom 820 as compatible with the 280L https://pcpartpicker.com/parts/case/?compatible_with=cooler-master-cpu-cooler-rln28l20pkr1 , as well as with the NH-D15...

if u go with liquid cooling get a case with a nice side panel

enthoo luxe or the H440

the enthoo luxe is bigger tho and has LED and stuff

if u want a water cooling i would go with the Swiftech H240/H240X

and one of the pros of having one is u can open it latter and the radiator is made out of cooper instead of aluminium so it can do a better job than any CLC

also if u already have that cooler there is no need to replace it best u can do is get 4 fans for push/pull

i already got the 280 L
But the only problem with me with that cooling system that there is no led controller PC software either for fan speed like Nzxt Kraken or Corsair hxxi !!

and my highest temps are ( 25-32 ) without turning the ac but outside at that time = 40 - 84

so when i havve to rest the ac for a while is it will be a problem ! ?
and yet i didin't get the phantom 820 if i will sell the 280 l and get noctua d 15 Nh based on the bad temps circumstances does lexa S will fit ! ? which i have now
