Cooler for a friend?

[jwilliamson47]

Looking for a cooler for a friend who says money is no object and wants the best out there, BUT! only wants to go with AIO cooling solutions... He always wants a long warranty.

What case does he have?

That'll determine what rad he can accomodate.

900D.. That thing is huge!

 

[Doomedspeed]

Has he looked at custom watercooling? Or us that what he was asking for?

That way he can cool his CPU and GPU(s)..

You got the rest of his specs at hand? .

He says he doesn't want to do full on custom water cooling as it's a "hassle" I'm not convinced though.

i7 4770k, 16gb ram, 780ti, 850 watt corsair psu.

He could send his pc to someone to do the custom loop for him. Aio coolers are probably more hassle will the number of them failing all the time. Also there is no point having a an aio in 900d. Even a h105 or 280mm aio are just going to look silly. He could also get a kit as well which would come with all the bits he would need for a custom loop.

If he really wants AIOs then H110 would probably be the best bet imo

or the H105.

Though it is a waste to gave an aio in a 900d

I agree that a 900d should not have an AIO water cooler but If he does go for the H105 he will need a fan controller as the stock fans for the h105 are 39 dB.

The fans on the H105 are PWM so can be controlled via mobo.
