For my future rigs that I build, which will be out of my own money from a job, I most likley will be using a closed loop cooler on the CPU, but leave the rest air with some high power low sound fans.
Reason being: I wouldn't really do much overclocks that would require a full custom water loop. Also seems like 2muchwork4me |

I do watercool my own builds, put it does take alot of time and effort and a low-sound fan could be just as good, but does cost a bit more.

If I ever do build a PC, probably not.
I'm paranoid that I might mess up water cooling and drown my PC.
But air cooling, it seems that Noctua is the way to go. Ugly fans, but great performance

water cooling is expensive and if you screw up it would be terrible
i would rather use the money on upgrading my gpu or cpu |

| You could get a close loop water cooler, they are pretty cheap options. (Around £90 for a 240mm) |

That was my idea. Leave everything on air with some nice fans, but like the equivalent of a H100i or something for my CPU. |

| Ah, okay. I think I might do a close loop water cooling in my first build. Simply as it can't go wrong. |

After I get my overdue textbook issue sorted out (60$ fine because I lost it, lucky me I have the money)
After that I am saving for another 770, a H440, and I am doing a full liquid loop. |

Never.
You're playing with fire when you're watercooling expensive components. |

| I kind of wish they made a closed loop GPU water cooler. |

"I kind of wish they made a closed loop GPU water cooler." they kind of have a solution. You put it on your GPU then you put a CPU cooler on the thing. It's kinda cool. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YattxxyWRh0 here's the LTT video on it. |

When I need to upgrade my computer completely, I will probably go higher end than what I already have and use a dual closed loop in a small case.
BTW, im a grill :^) |

| I was thinking about it for my next total build(hopefully not for a while). But I kind of need to give up my current case which I really like. so yeah. |
