Any opinions on the best bang-for-the-buck (not BEST I'm not loaded) AIO dual rad CPU cooler? Any fan size.

price range? AIOs are not really cheap option, if you want a overpowered cooler that will last you a long time get a dark pro 3 or a DH 15.

{AIOs} ∩ {Value} =  ∅

If you make a post contradicting mine that doesn't directly address my claims, or cites 'facts' without evidence, I'm probably not going to bother responding to it, because you probably didn't bother reading my post properly, and because life is too short. It doesn't mean I don't have an answer for you. It means I'm not dignifying you with a response.

best value? 

http://pcpartpicker.com/product/hQ7CmG/lepa-cpu-cooler-lpwac240hf

it's the cheapest 240mm cooler around

 

 

how is it that cheap? holy crap a $60 240 AIO!

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

Yeh cheap + aio = many tears. Really if your getting an aio get a decent one from a good brand like corsair, thermal take or nzxt. If your budget ram dies whatever, your aio leaks you've costs yourself more than the $30 you were saving

well, AIO's are not the way to go if you're looking for "bang for the buck" cooling.... but if you are looking or cooling:dollar ratio and it MUST be an AIO, then get the cheapest 240mm you can find as it will result in the best cooling:dollar. Good ones that are also cheap are the LEPA 240 aqua changer, CoolerMaster master Liquid Pro, and the Enermax Liqmax II 240. Beyond that you start getting into more premium ones which are a fair bit more expensive. There are also other cheap ones, but I've heard good things about the ones I've mentioned here (not to say the others are bad, I've just not heard much about them)

Consult that list and just purchase the cheapest one if you're looking for "bang for the buck"

Problem is, those are both enormous. Like in my case, I want a better cooler but I have to get a 240mm AIO 'cause the bigger air coolers just won't fit.
