I’m upgrading my 11700K to a 14700K and see that it runs hot. I’m wanting to go ahead and get a 320mm aio cooler. Any recommendations on a quiet one that’s good? Wanting to not spend more than $150 for it. Thanks!
By far the most important is that it has a coolant temperature sensor and does fan control based on the coolant/water temperature and not the actual CPU temperature. CPU temperature will fluctuate a load depending on load, but coolant will take a long time to get to equilibrium. If you get an AIO without coolant sensor, you’ll get annoying very rapid fluctuating and high fan speeds, even when coolant is ‘cold’.
The Arctic is one of the better ones, but I can stilll hear the pump noise. Maybe the EK Nucleus, although I haven’t tried that one yet.
You’re gonna wanna get theLian Li Galahad II Trinity
Whoever is telling you to get the arctic is still stuck in 2019
