Are you in the US? I'd look at a 360mm radiator, which I think will fit in the top of the case, and if not at least a 280mm radiator. You need all the cooling you can get with that CPU. Swiftech H240X??

Anything struggles some. Check out the Swiftech. It has a fantastic pump and a 'custom' grade waterblock.
It's that or buying my brothers intel i7 4790k for $125 and having to buy a new mobo. Stuck between these 2 choices. Get a good cpu for cheap and buy a new mobo or stick with mine and get a new rad. That h240x looks like it could tame the beast

So I decided to sell the mobo and cpu. I mean its really a good cpu. I don't think it's as bad as what people make it. I don't bottleneck and crysis 3 does not run a high load. It's just a hot pricey cpu. Anyone looking for a fx9590 & a crosshair v formula z mobo
