i would buy the 240mm rad and sell the 120mm. Also is this a good setup is there anything im missing?





above all will it be better cooling than my current Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro?

thanks
 
I'd suggest you go with the OcUK bundle.
It's far better than the swiftech one.

With a dual rad it should be better. Specially if you're overclocking.

The only thing I can see you needing is some cooling fluid.

That's if you're not using distilled/deionised water.
 
it comes with some Feser One UV Reactive Coolant 1 Litre will that be enough or do i need more?
 
I'd suggest 2 litres. I'm sure 1 litre should be more than enough. But you can never be to sure.

If you have some extra you could always test the parts before you make a pc loop.
