Should I wait for the Zalman Reserator 3, or go for Corsair water cooling or Zalman copper/air?

I've personally had really good luck with corsair coolers I have the 100i however that won't work with your case the h80i is probably what I'd go with. I haven't seen a review for the zalman cooler yet although I believe linus from linus tech tips is going to do one soon.

I appreciate your advice. The H100i, I though, would fit along the top. I'm just deterred by the mixed reviews. Asetek kinda looks promising, but I have no idea where to purchase their stuff. The Reserator 3 is available from the UK for around 170 bucks inc. shipping.
I've always liked Zalman air coolers, if all else fails.

I saw someone through a google search that the h100i would not fit not enough inside clearance for it to work. And like I said I don't have experience with the new cooler by Zalman. Although I have used there old flower air coolers which were superb. In my opinion they where they dropped off the map was the heavy branding on there products. You'll notice most coolers are very plain don't have the company name advertised overly loudly.

I really like the case, and cooling the CPU at stock speeds isn't an issue. I'm all about temperatures, stability and longevity. I guess maybe throw out some ideas if anybody has any?
