I have a budget of 600 here.And I'm wondering what kind of kit should i buy.
Currently in a dilemma of EK-WB LT 240 and XSPC Rasa 750 RS240.
Another question here,should i go for 1 of those of purchase a custom one??
If you guys prefer a custom one,do make a list of what I have to buy.My processor is kinda hot,take a peek at my siggy. nod.gif
Any helps and suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
Once again,thanks in advance. notworthy.gif

RX240 gone. Left one RS240. Decent cooling kit for the price. The benefit of going custom WC is that you can, well, custom it as you get more experience in WC. WC pump has a lifespan and it can be replaced in a custom WC solution. Not quite possible with the Corsair Hydro series.

However, you can salvage the Corsair radiator and fans when the pump goes kaput biggrin.gif

both EK-WB LT 240 and XSPC Rasa 750 RS240 are more or less the same, maybe just 2 to 3 'c different. However, i am EK fan boy. lolx
