Hello, i'm using an cooler master seidon 120xl with my core i7 5820k and the processor still r really hot (40-60 c) its not overclocked and my case have good air flow.

Im thinking about to change the cooler for an 240-280mm rad.

So, im looking for the cooler master liquid pro 240, its a worth upgrade? Or maybe another one?

Annother issue is an 240mm not fit in my case with an x99 motherboard (cosmos se) i,ll need to modify the case to make it fit, so its worth to change the cooler and the case anyway?

But change from seidon 120xl to an 240mm rad would be an upgrade? I'm looking for nepton 240m or master liquid pro 240 (because same brand psu, case) wich of these would be a decent upgrade? (I'll use an pull/push config)
