Coolermaster V8 or all in one liquid thermaltake Bigwater 760 plus?

[computerbuildin]

Im not sure on the temps of these but id like to have a liquid cooler, like this one as it is easy, all in one and saves alot more space and is smaller than the v8, i know usually air cooling might be worse but this is a high end air cooler, and i need to decide on either. Also not to sound retarded but im no so educated on liquid cooling, does it need thermal paste? Also the price on the liquid cooling set is 150 and the v8 is 50. And can anyone reply on my other post for phantom case and fans for cooling? Thanks.

I haven't worked with the Thermaltake Bigwater 760 personally, but all I see online is negative reviews, it's a few years older, and the price seems pretty steep.

If you want an all-in-one liquid cooler that will take up less space around the CPU than the V8, take a look at Corsair's lineup. An H60 is probably what you're looking for, but they have several models at different price points. Antec and Coolit also sell similar products.

Avoid thermal take water products..

well not unless u want to see a water show inside your computer in the future at the cost of all your hardware.

Aigomorla is right, if you're going pre-made water get the H80 or H100.

To be honest, if you have the money get a Noctua NH-D14. It's right up there with water temp wise for much less money.

Hey guys ive already decided on the v8 a while ago, anyway someone help me out on my thread phantom case and fans for cooling, I was wondering if I had the correct airflow.

I wouldn't recommend the V8 unless you can get it cheaper.
