Hello guys :) just wanted to know Any liquid cooler that is very easy to install like the Cooler Master. season compatible with my specs..
My specs:
Intel i5 4460 heat sink is so loud and the temperature goes up to 100 degrees!
Asus H81M-Plus motherboard
Corsair Vengeance 16gb ram
Antec Truequiet 120mm 2x
AMD r7 360 Overclocked GPU(at the moment) I love it :) uses 500 watts at the minimum like the r9 380 OC :)
Corsair VS550 550 watt PSU
Seagate Barracuda hardrive
Asus VP228H Gaming Monitor 21.5 inch If this matters
Case: cooler master k350

I installed a fan at the right next to the cpu and the gpu and a fan at the front and I still hit 90-100 sometimes over degrees! The heat sink is really whopping loud and I wanna rip my hair off! Someone help me? I think it's the heatsink it sounds like a lawnmower the. It reduces and it still is loud and hot inside! Someone please help me btw I am a beginner and I need a heat sink that is good or a liquid cooler and I am wondering if there is any good heat sink with the same design as the i5 4460 heat sink you just push it in? Sorry for my bad English..

Thanks and I hope you guys have a very lovely day :) hope you never come across anything like this and feel trapped :(

Thanks.
UPDATES:
It's me again I pushed I the screws and the noise has reduced by a lot! Thanks! But the country temp is now 80-90 degrees/31.5 Celsius when idle.. Help?!
But everything feels cool inside the pc and the gpu is not hot anymore I don't know what's going on to be honest
Thanks for your help! :) :)

I'm so very confused.

Heatsinks are pieces of metal, they make no noise. Fans make noise. Fans can be attached to heatsinks, but it doesn't make the heatsink noisy it's still the fan.

Then you have an R7 360 that you say is pulling 500W? It's a 100W board. Power goes like clock speed times voltage squared, so if we assume you tripled the clock speed you'd still need to run it at a voltage that is sqrt(5/3) as great as stock, and triple speed is an absurd stretch. Sorry, there's absolutely no way you're pulling 500W on that board, you may be up to 140W tops.

Your CPU is also locked so I know you are not overclocking the CPU. If it's hitting 100C there's only one reason for that - your heatsink is installed incorrectly. You don't need any new parts, you don't need to positions fans in any particular location. You need to remove the heatsink, clean it off, apply good thermal compound, then reinstall it. Do that, I'm very confident you'll see temperatures on your CPU that are in the 60-70C range under load.

Sounds (Sounds lol) like the fan is causing the heatsink to vibrate which means the screws aren't tightened properly and you did reapply thermal grease yeah if at all?

Like Vegemite, once you lift the top bread layer, that smooth layer of Vegemite you just spread will be no more leaving an uneven surface giving way for air pocket affect, just a tip. An uneven layer of grease wouldn't be ideal sure, but certainly wouldn't cause a drastic temp increase of a 100c. Which makes me think either the heatsink isn't installed properly as already mentioned or you forgot to apply thermal grease which transfers heat from one metal surface to another. Sand witching metal surfaces together (CPU & heatsink) without thermal grease between is a quick way to overheat a cpu.

Your cooler probably is not fully locked in place; check from the back of the motherboard to see which pin(s) may not be fully inserted.
