The basic story is,

I really don't want to buy those h100's or a D14 as D14's are to big and the h100's I've heard are rubbish.

I need overclocking room and I've seen kits from:
EK
XSPC

I don't want to upgrade, I just want something that will let me overclock a lot and not produce too much noise/heat while still being reliable.
I also have a budget of around £130.

Can anyone recommend something for me? I get so confused, you get really expensive 240 kits, and cheap 360 kits, or will a 120 do fine?
Plus I would love this to all fit into one case.

I'm sorry for the long winded post but I really have no idea.

You can't get anything decent for that price in terms of proper water cooling.

Either bite the bullet and deal with a huge cooler, NH-D14, or get the H100 and deal with the QC issues it has.

if you have 1000(USD), you can water cool your pc, but im pretty sure 130 euros is not close to 1000 usd :p

Ok, how much to watercool JUST the 3930k at 4.8Ghz reliably and safely + Looks. No upgrade room either.

If possible list some parts?

stay on air cooling.

Radiator = 75% of what your going to be able to do on water.. regardless of setup.

If you saying a 120x2 radiator is too small, then no.. u wont like the customs at all, because i start pushing at 120x2 for radiators even for cpu only loop.

You saying a RS240 will do to OC a 3930k and still be 20db?
