Hi their

I currently have a fairly old Corsair H100i which I think is on it's way out so I have been looking at different options for CPU cooling. I use to custom water cool my PC so I still have a few bits lying around which I could make use of (radiator, fittings).

I have narrowed it down to 3 options. Either, another AIO cooler the Corsair H110i GT, the Noctua NH-D15 tower air cooler or go back to custom water cooling. I'm not on a budget but the options I have picked are all within a few ££'s of each other. If I was to go custom water cooling again I have been looking at this pump and block....

What is your opinion on the Magicool DCP450 pump, and does anyone use one? Noise is quite important to me and I like a quiet PC. If I was to go with the custom water cooling option I would be pairing it up with a Hardware Labs stealth GT 360mm radiator. I also quite like the idea of going with the NH-D15 because I've heard it's nice and quiet. Which option do you think would be the better overall?

Opinions on all would be really appreciated to help me make my choice :)
 
Get a D5 pump.

That's the point though. I know the D5 is a much better pump but I was trying to compare the 3 options within the same sort of price range. I'd rather not spend lot's of money on custom water cooling as I have done that in the past.
 
Sorry, I was slightly narrow in my quote, I meant in comparison to the DCP pump.

But you also wrote that you are not on a budget and noise is "quite important", so I'm kinda confused now :)
