Was thinking of a dedicated CPU liquid cooling system, that I wouldn't have to do stuff like flush out the system or have an external radiator
 
System specs:
Case: Lian Li PC 2120B

CPU: i7 4770k
http://www.newegg.com/Pro...x?Item=N82E16819116901
Motherboard: ASUS Maximus VI Formula
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813132038
GPU: 2 EVGA GTX 980 ACX SC
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814487079
And some other stuff that doesn't really affect cooling (more details in my modrigs if needed)
 
Any advice? I was thinking of a corsair self contained system, but would be open to other options.

    I would definitely shoot for something like a Corsair H75. I suggest staying away from the ones with an i in it, the software for the extra sensors is really bad IMO.

    MSI MEG Z490 ACE | Gigabyte Aorus Z390 Master

    The AIO's are a great way to go as a first step out of just air.  My friend beat the heck out of his H50 in P/P for several years and lots of clocking and it just worked.  Killed it after about 4 years, I think he is on a H100 now (I know his H50 died after years of 24/7 use) and said it's great as well.
