How should I cool it?

[haycraft9311]

I decided I am going to buy the i7 2600k. I want to OC it to 5Ghz, no less, no more. It is a goal more than anything. The budget is up to $175. I WANT it to be watercooled (this high of a OC, Im sure it has to be), but what should I do? I am down for a self-contained water cooler, or one of those crazy tons of parts setup. I just need to know WHAT parts. Thanks for answers ahead of time .

Probably your best bet at a legit 5ghz attempt. Do you really need 5ghz?

Like I said, not needed, just a goal. Something I would really like to achieve, but I am not at all experienced with water cooling to be honest. Thanks for the post

Check out the Overclocking section, theres a W/c subsection there for help with a 'real' loop, or http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?p=19687625 they managed it on a 2500k, I'd prefer the 'real' solution over that though, more flexibility
