first of all I have this case http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811163174 and currently have this cpu cooler http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835118127

 

i'm thinking about looking for something a bit quieter. are there any liquid cpu coolers that would fit my case? or would i have to get a different case to go that route?

 

and if nothings available there do you guys have any recommendations for a quieter air cpu cooler?

If you're not using any PCI ports, you could run the water cables out there, or cut it back a little to fit it on the top. But, you won't fit any water cooling inside that case.

I use the Noctua NH-L9 in my HTPC which is a similar Silverstone Micro-ATX case. It is much more silent than the stock cooler but not as silent as more efficient air coolers like the NH-U14S (which wouldn't fit such a case). Overall I'm satisfied with it. Make sure to select the right version (NH-L9i for Intel and NH-L9a for AMD).
