Rather than a custom loop you may be better off with a AIO cooler. Look at Corsair H series etc.

Replaced it with a Noctua NH-D14 and my temps actually went down a few degrees.

And I will never buy that, because of such a ridiculous juvenile name Phanteks cooler is pretty good from what I recall, the Cryorig was a bonus because it didn't encroach on any RAM.
lol, pretty much what I thought.
Water cooling is a hobby first, a practicality second. Plenty of air coolers are big enough to handle the dissipation of even a moderately overclocked chip. I'd recommend custom WC every time but only if that person actually wants to invest in the 'adventure'.
But, with all that said, gaming with a 3930k at 4.4Ghz on 1.38-1.4v and a 780ti Classified at 1215Mhz at 1.21v with fans at no more than 700-900 rpm after 2 hours on BF4 is audio bliss. Air can't touch good water but my WC set up cost as much as my gfx card.

The Glacer 240 is a fine cooler as long as it fits in your case.
What case do you have?
