Iwant to get an h100i or an h100i gtx? Which is better? What are the differences? Which one has the rgb led? Lol. If i do get either of those, is that all i need to get or do i need to get another part for it? Im new to water cooling so im unsure if i will need anything else. Do i need a pump or a radiator or does it come with one? Ive tried looking for the answer to that but everything just says you should have room for a radiator,not whether or not it comes with one.
 
From those two, the gtx h100i is better (newer, rgb lighting, slightly better temps). You won't need extra components with any of these two as they are self contained AIO water coolers. But I recommend you to get a high end air cooler instead (less noise, better longevity (less components to fail, and more rigid components) , also cools other components like the motherboard and less expensive). Here are some good choices: Noctua Nh-D14/15 (best of the best in terms of temps), beQuiet Dark Rock Pro 3 (quietest high end cpu air cooler on the market)(I own this one myself) etc. Aio water coolers have poor performance/noise ratio and only exceed a high end air coolers by a few degrees.
