Hey guys, I wanted to know, which liquid cooler to consider from these 3 AIOs for my i7 7700
I am aware that It is non K and that It makes no sense to water cool since I wont OC. However the 212 doesnt fit in my case /spec01/ and I am looking to up my level for my 3rd build. So, I have these three in mind

Liqmax II 240
H20 H1200 Pro
AquaChanger 240

Question is, which one of these? Is it compatible with my B250 Pro Motherboard? and will it support my Kaby Lake LGA1151 CPU?

Thanks guys xD

Damn, not selling in the store where Im buying from. I know that I most likely can get it off other places, however just to stick to topic, which one of these 3 would be recomended?

A'ight so if I can go for the carbide 100r silent and spend the extra money for an strix 1060? And keep the 7700 non k? that would be a good option wouldn't it?
 


Depends on what's in the rest of your build, but yes that sounds about right. With the money saved on a cooler, I'd consider a better video card or faster/larger SSD.

Be aware that an i7 7700 + GTX 1060 together only draw about 180w, so you don't need a terribly big power supply either. Better to get a higher quality, higher efficiency unit than one with a ton of watts.

This is tons of back and forth, however I changed my case to the s340 and the GPU to the Strix RX 480. This way, with the case I can opt for a hyper 212/412s and still have the upgradability for an dual radiator AIO liquid cooler

 


Back and forth is good, it's the point in fact, that way we get the best answer overall.
