Between the Digital Storm Vortex 240, Corsair H110i GT and HydroLux LITE: CPU. Which one is the best choice to go with,will the Hydrolux make a big difference, the price difference is 170 bucks, I basically want something that will be quiet and cool the best. My specs will be the apollo with I7 5820K, 980ti hybrid and 32 gigs of ram. The cooling is the only issue I can't decide on, want to order but no idea what to do, thanks.

The Corsair h110i is best bang for your buck.   The DS Vortex is about the same, but its warranty might be tied to the warranty on your rig, 1 or 2 years parts, and the Corsair brand has 5 year warranty.

The LITE is real nice, good quality and it would be a good pick if looks, like the colored tubing, was important, or you wanted to break the loop later and add on to it. 

They'll all work just fine for a moderate overclock.

Thanks for the help as always Bprat, appreciate it. Now when you say moderate overlock, is the 4.4 ghz fine, will I have heating issues and will the noise be okay. The computer will be in a small, room and the noise and heat is something I'm worried about. Thanks.

Yep, the 4.4 is a moderate overclock.   Heat won't be an issue and noise.....I'm not sure the noise comparison between the LITE and the Corsair 110i GT.  If I can find a bench I'll post here.
