H100i is meh
I am disappointed with mine in all honesty, for the price I paid it isn't as good as I would have liked, My max can be in the low 50's (AMD CPU) yet my old 212 Evo had a max temp of 58. I average 45C under heavy load though on a decent overclock.

if your running intel the i100 is amazing ive ran amd with a i100 and it ran pretty hot

all amd chips run really hot so i would say go with Intel

ps: i had a AMD(FX)9590

9590s generate a lot of heat, that is why. A 6300 is fairly cool.

Not all AMD chips run hot.

Some will come included so you should be fine.

The PH-TC14PE will be quieter and it's my personal choice but others prefer looks of the Aio's.

Not massive on the colour of it tho decided that im going to go for air cooling now preferibly black/white ones a heard noctuas are good but the brown colour is like wtf. Also are the case fans that conebwith my case good cus idk if not it would be nice to replace at least one with a better one if it fits in the 80gbp budget

the Phanteks ones come in loads of colours so just have a look around
Case fans are case fans, no point upgrading them if they do the job, unless you want silence or something.
