Its a bad set up. You wont get any exceptional kits unless it is from an online shop that offers a 'kit offer' comprised of separate components.
Good things to look for are D-tek fusion, Apogge GTX or the EK supreme water blocks Swiftech or thermo chill radiators DDC or D5 pumps Swiftech microres is popular too ![]() If your looking at somthing cheap and easy than the only kit i would suggest is the swiftech compact kit

You should still have case fans to circulate air around other hot components in the case though.

Now are you looking for just the CPU cooler itself, or for a complete liquid cooling kit? And if you are looking for a kit, are you looking for a basic one which cools just 1-2 devices, or a more complex one?

You can buy better parts by buying everything individually, as well as customizing everything. However I've found that there are kits out there in the $100 range, however if you buy the parts yourself you're looking at least $200 for all the necessary parts.
