What do you wish to accomplish?
What cpu are you trying to cool?

My canned rant on liquid cooling:
------------------------start of rant-------------------
You buy a liquid cooler to be able to extract an extra multiplier or two out of your OC.
How much do you really need?
I do not much like all in one liquid coolers when a good air cooler like a Noctua or phanteks can do the job just as well.
A liquid cooler will be expensive, noisy, less reliable, and will not cool any better
in a well ventilated case.
Liquid cooling is really air cooling, it just puts the heat exchange in a different place.
The orientation of the radiator will cause a problem.
If you orient it to take in cool air from the outside, you will cool the cpu better...

If you orient it to take in cool air from the outside, you will cool the cpu better, but the hot air then circulates inside the case heating up the graphics card and motherboard.
If you orient it to exhaust(which I think is better) , then your cpu cooling will be less effective because it uses pre heated case air.
And... I have read too many tales of woe when a liquid cooler leaks.
google "H100 leak"

Your pc will be quieter, more reliable, and will be cooled equally well with a decent air cooler.

i was gonna go for i5 6600k....
as for any type of cooler these are the only option in my city/country...

http://www.primeabgb.com/buy-online-price-inida/cpu-cooler/
cheapest and best is the 212x...
 
Hyper212 will generally do the job.
The best will be the noctua NH-U14s.

I use a noctua NH-U12s and have no problem with a oc to 4.8.

How high you can go will be determined by the quality of your chip, not the cooling.
Here is what you can expect:
As of 2/16/16
What percent can get an overclock at a somewhat sane 1.40v Vcore.
I5-6600K
4.9 11%
4.8 38%
4.7 70%
4.6 83%

as per you how much oc do u think 212x can give... same case with 4 case fans for more air flow... if that helps... i may not know much about oc. so didnt understood all of this

Overclocking is somewhat of a misnomer.
It involves the raising of the stock multiplier from 35 to a higher number. Perhaps as high as 46 to 48.
When you raise the multiplier, the motherboard will, by default raise the voltage necessary.
It is this higher voltage that generates heat that needs to be dissipated by the cpu cooler.
As a result, how well you can do is usually more limited because of the efficiency of the chip in using voltage, and not so much as heat.
Just gradually raise the multiplier and stress test; I like OCCT for that.
If it gets too hot(85c.) or the vcore gets too high(1.40)
stop and back off a notch or two.

Really, most any game will play well at 40 and that is a snap.
