Arctic Liquid Freezer 2 280 AIO outperforms most of the competition for under 100$. One of the few liquid coolers that uses new AIO tech, has better temps than the air coolers, and is made by a reputable company. They give you a 2 year warranty on purchase. https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/arctic-liquid-freezer-ii-280-all-in-one-cpu-cooler,6376-2.html

280mm rad is the way to go. They can be quieter and as good as some 360s from what I have read. I had a 240mm aio from Thermaltake, was okay, RGB was okay but software was below par. Now I have the H115i platinum from Corsair. Its a 280mm rad so it has the 140mm ML fans and its really quiet, and does run cooler than the 240mm rad. Corsair has a pretty good RGB set up in my opinion, software gives me no issues really. I like how you can find online lighting profiles and just download them and load em up to your system. This is more crucial with full system Corsair stuff like mine, but can be useful regardless.

Hey, yeah i have been looking at the deepcool one for a while but i thought deepcool was like a "overpriced budget" thing that no one liked

but are they good? even the 280mm ones?
