I am thinking water cooling may be a bit out of my price range but I would still like to OC a bit, nothing extreme just enough to get some solid proformance.
I have seen some of the giant cpu coolers with 120mm fans on them, how loud are they?
Depends on what fan you put on it. I'm really a quiet cooling guy myself, so I always go for 120mm fans. Anything over 1200rpm is too loud for my tastes, but yours may vary. Good all around fans are Yate Loons, and Scythe S-Flex fans come in 800, 1200, and 1600 rpm varieties so you can choose how much noise you're willing to tolerate.
