I heard allot about cooling for Over clocking and in the case of things it seems like water cooling is best so i picked out this

CORSAIR Hydro Series H100 (CWCH100) Extreme Performance Liquid CPU Cooler
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835181017

I hear its the best but apparently i hear that this one is better then the H100

CORSAIR Hydro Series H100i Water Cooler
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=35-181-032&Tpk=35-181-032

I want maximum performance plus the lowest temperatures i can get and the H100i just seems like a mini cooler too the h100 i have a cooler master haf 932
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119160 this one too be exact but i wanna know what will fit best in my computer i also have a radeon 7850 and a msi z77 mpower big bang

The best cooler out there is the NZXT Kraken x60dual radiator 280mm radiator for $140 but you will be good with the h80i too. Single radiator but performs similar to the H100i.
Please check the section where you are posting the thread.

Okay sorry about posting in the wrong section i kind of just put this here because i also need help with the motherboard but as of cpu coolers im trying too run on a budget of 150 at the highest for one but i just want it too have great performance and keep the temperatures low

If you can go upto $150 get the kraken x60. Also since you are aiming for the maximum overclock achievable. And on the bsod problem(that I didn't notice earlier) you need to provide more info

I've used both the h100i and the kraken x60 actually I upgraded to kraken. And from my experience the kraken performs better in keeping the CPU cool. I have no idea on which one is louder because both seemed virtually quiet to me. Although the corsair does make a little noise when set to full speed.

Edit: After a quick check I found out that haf932 is not listed in the Kraken x60 compatibility chart.

So your best bet is now to get a H80i which performs surprisingly better than h100i is many cases due to dual fan push pull configuration. Or You can get the H100i and stick two more fans to the radiator to get an ultimate push pull configuration.
