There isn't best, try checking for a new cpu fan rather than liquid since it'll be a lot cheaper and the difference between water and air isn't that much

Don't buy a liquid cooling case.

Don't buy a liquid cooling kit.

They both are out-performed by high-end air coolers (as they use poor parts), which are also cheaper.

That is completely untrue. Even budget liquid cooling can work wonders over air cooling.

If you want to buy one just for your processor, I would go with the Swiftech H20-120. Granted it's not the absolute best, but for the money (~$140), it's a great deal. Or if you want to cool the video card and chipset, the H20-220 for around $330 is a great kit.

However I must warn you that if your not experienced with computer hardware and liquid cooling, that it can become very difficult and inexperience could result in a poor performing or leaking system.

I haven't heard anything 'bad' about this kit, other than system is large.

I read bad reviews about the thermaltake big water kit, leaks, low quality hardware, etc.

The swifttech kit seems very popular too.

Gigabyte's kits are good but I think Swift-tech's are better

swiftechs ARE better

as are dangerden setups (which are essentially custom made kits using other companies parts)
