Hi again,
sorry I hijacked that other guy's thread,noob error.
I need a cpu cooler to work with an intel i5,ASRock PRO 3 Z68 motherboard in a Coolermaster CM 690 case with 8GB of Corsair Vengeance 1833 RAM with another 8GB due soon ,so no obscuring RAM slots possible.
My first choice would be a Noctua or Phantek but with the RAM being so tall at over 2 inches I think that's not going to be possible for me.
That leaves me looking at a closed loop water cooler such as a Corsair H series or an Antec Kuhler series.
I think with the offers on this week it's going to be the Antec Kuhler 920 but it may be possible to get noise levels down a little by upgrading from the stock fans that come with that unit so if someone could recommend me a pair of reasonably priced 120mm PWM fans or give me any insight into the performance of different fans it would be appreciated.
I do have some concerns about fitting the Antec in my case as well so if anyone's done a similar set up it'd be nice to hear from you,
Thanks
