MEM :. Gskill Trident x
GPU:. XFX Fury trple dissipation ( but i already bought the EK nikel+acetal and backplate for it, yesterday actualy )
CPU:. FX 9370

EK Supremacy EVO RED:.

note:. from what i have seen the heatkiller nickel is the best in preformance but it would look like crap in the built and i dont think that it would be a good idea to paint the Nickel top whit plastidip ?
The Heatkiller whit acetal top or that beautifull EK red would match the build perfectly...

Can you guys give me your personal opinion ? :):) pls.
Thanks.

I agree. Those blocks will be within 1-2c difference. I would also agree with Jack on the red EVO. Will match your color scheme.
 
This is the one I use Koolance 380a , good performance and looks plu durable. Had it a couple years and have had it on and off probably over 200 times. Good solid backplate too which is important.
