Cryorig H7 Quad Lumi vs Scythe Mugen 5 vs Thermalright Macho 120 Rev. A ???


I do not take the included fans into account because i will change it for a noctua.
I am leaning towards the Thermalright Macho 120 Rev. A.

Max. CPU-height for my case = 155mm

Ya, it makes no sense why you wouldn't just go noctua for the cooler if you just gonna swap the fans out.

As people have been saying you should just buy a Noctua product from start.
