Hey guys.
I'm looking for a new liquid cooling solution for my 4670k OC'd to 4.5 ghz at 1.23 volts. I was considering the H50 or H55, but I've heard they're not ideal for overclocking. Do anyone with experience have any recommendations within a $150 budget?

There are choices such as the H80i featuring 120mm thick radiators paired with two fans. They perform adequately, though they typically maintain temperatures around the low 70s during heavy overclocking.

Up to $150 covers most options available.
A good 240mm radiator is sufficient for achieving profit with premium air coolers.
Consider a 280mm model or higher. You might also explore some of the all-copper/brass built-in or expandable systems. The Swiftech H240-X2 is a 280mm pump, reservoir, radiator, and CPU block that can be taken apart and upgraded with GPUs and additional radiators.

Eximo:
The market offers quite a range, with prices around $150 covering most options. A solid 240mm radiator should be sufficient for profitability when paired with premium air coolers. You might also consider a 280mm model or higher-end all-in-one units made from copper or brass. The Swiftech H240-X2 is a 280mm pump, reservoir, rad, and CPU block that can be taken apart and upgraded with GPUs or radiators. I’m uncertain if a 280mm fit your setup, as my current build is an older DIYPC adventurer-9601R and I was seeking a 120mm option. Would a 280mm solution be feasible for me?

For $150, I wouldn't suggest anything lower than the Swiftech H220 X. Instead, keep your funds or allocate them to additional RAM, a superior SSD, or a better video card, and opt for a reliable air cooler.
