Hi guys. I'm getting rid of my Q9550 system,in favor of 2600k.
my pc parts are ariving this week :
Gigabyte p67a-UD7 b3.
Corsair vengeance 1600 c9
i7 2600k
I'm looking for a great cooling solution for it. I was looking at h70... but I'm open to any other suggestions since I'm a bit prejudice agains any pump-based water-looped devices that can potentially leak.
Thanks.

Considering the height of the Corsair Vengeance RAM modules, you're probably gonna want to go with something like the Thermalright Archon or Venom-X. The dimensions of HSFs like the Arrow and NH-D14 could prevent you from using them.
Actually I've found some pics of a build that has my case ( haf X), the UD7, and same vengeance ram pared with Silver Arrow. It blocks the first ram slot and apparently touches a bit the ram that was in the second slot, but it works.
Here are those pics.
But if I'm to choose between VX, Archon and SA wich was will have the best bang for the buck ? I do want to push 2600k up to 4.5-4.7 ghz for 24/7.
