I'd recommend watching a youtube video on the Thermaletake, and making up your mind off of that. I'm sure its a good enough cooler to keep your i7 cooled even with it being overclocked. I was just trying to help you get something better for cheaper, but if that's all that is available in your country then by all means, buy the Thermaltake it will suffice just fine.

Don't get a 120mm AIO cooler, it will do about the same as your current cooler if not worse. I'd recommend a good heatsink, Your current Heatsink is a pretty budget one, I'd recommend a better Heatsink something from Cryorig I'd recommend a r1 Universal or get a Corsair h100i AIO cooler (they are both about the same performance) just I prefer heatsinks any day compared to an AIO.

It's not worth it trust me 120mm AIO coolers are complete garbage.

Atleast they are garbage for overclocking especially on i7's since i7's are basically 12 core CPU's 4 physical cores 2 logical cores for each physical one it just can't keep a overclocked chip cool enough, that's where big heat sinks and 240mm AIO coolers come in.

alright I think I will get the 240mm one since it's the only one I found in my country I found others but they are junk. What do you think is it good http://thermaltake.com/products-model.aspx?id=C_00002457 ?
Sorry for the troubles simply because I'm a noob :D

I can't really give you a estimate of how good it is as I've never used it. the fans on it don't look very good I must say, I'm sure it will do fine but I'm going to send you to read the best solution on this post http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-1815836/corsair-h100i-thermaltake-water-extreme.html Read exactly what he says and see if you can find any of those coolers in your country for around the same price. If not just go with the Thermaletake water extreme 3.0 then.

Well there is also the cooler master nepton 240M and also the 280L but they cost around 150$ and the thermaltake extreme is 130$. Well I think these 3 are relative in performance and furthermore the thermaltake runs a bit more cooler cuz I saw many reviews and tests about and it seems that it is recommended, what do you think?
