X99 or Z97?

The H220-X is going to outperform any Corsair unit in a big way.
You can also easily expand it to include another radiator and add a GPU block.

Noted. I'm going to go ahead and get the 220x.

Towards the end of the year, or at least next "pay day" I'm probably going to go full custom LC'ing. I've wanted to have that for a long time now, I've just never gotten around to it.

Well, the H220-X is your best choice then. You can just expand it instead of replacing it.
The block they use is a top performer, and Swiftech in general is just great quality.

The site that you linked (http://www.performance-pcs.com/swiftech-h220-x-dual-120mm-cpu-liquid-cooling-kit.html) gives some options for barb fittings. One is clearly optional, but the other I'm not so sure about. "Swiftech Fitting Choice", I assume for just the CPU I'll want to stick with the 3/8" tubing, but I just want to make sure I do need to select the fittings and that's not just an optional upgrade. Any idea?

Just leave those options blank, that's an add-on they do.

That's what I was thinking. Thanks for all your help!

ATMINSIDE,

How do you see the newer MX100's against the 840 EVO's? I saw some interesting benchmarks, they look to be jst as good or better but cheaper..

ATMINSIDE · Mar 30, 2015

With current pricing, I would be looking at the 850 EVO over either the 840 EVO or MX100.
