Need some advice on cooling.

Im looking at the Corsair H50-1 High-Performance CPU Watercooler and the Noctua NH-D14 Dual Radiator CPU Cooler, one question is about the h50 is there a problem with dust? Since it's sucking air in from outside. The other question is ive got the earlier model of the Noctua and it's big, Is size a problem with this heatsink and fan combo.

Cheers

How is the H50 sucking air in from outside? It's a completely sealed unit.

Hi m8, you could fit a air filter to the H50 fan, which would be far easier to clean plus stop the inside of your case getting coated with dust > filter/fan/case(air blowing into case)
