Hardware Hub Cooling

hello everyone

i've recently bought the fx 8350 and the m5a99x evo 2.0.

i'm planning to overclock this cpu yet i live in a pretty hot place

im planning to add another waterblock for my gpu..

the price for both the cpu coolers is pretty much the same...

my question is whats better? the h220 or xspc rs240 kit

thanks for the help :D

If you're planning on adding a water block for your GPU later, you may want to start with a XSPC kit.  Then you'll need to select a pump that can handle a CPU and GPU loop.  I'm not sure the Swiftech H220 would be up to the task.  It would be fine as a CPU loop only though.

If it'll fit in your case, I recommend the RX240 over the two you listed above.
