Whats the best cpu liquid cooler that wont have the most wires?

I basically want a cpu cooler that does not have a lot of wires coming out of it or having to put into the motherboard like the corsair one. Anyone know any good ones?

Which Corsair one? Corsair makes a ton of coolers. Also, a water cooler that doesn't plug into the motherboard won't be doing you much good since that means pump control can't be handled precisely.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

A Noctua nh-d12A, or Dark Rock 4. 

 

Or larger like nh-d15 and Dark Rock Pro 4

 

 

Because good aircoolers are better than poor watercoolers

Not by a lot and they cost a whole lot more.

 

And they have a lot more wires. 

 

Aircoolers are inherently more reliable and doesbt suffer from pump "hum"

2 wires? that's a pain? Unless you don't want to control the logo LED, then it's one wire.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

If you dont want more than a single wire. Aircoolers are your go to choice. 

 

An AIO will have 2 or more wires depending if its 120mm or above. And double and tripplefan use splitters. 

 

And id you are going 120mm, an Aircooler will be way better

the 4 pins are male, you plug fans into those connectors, you don't plug those connectors into the motherboard. You can leave them empty.

They can be left unplugged. Alternatively, you could plug fans into these instead of the motherboard.

Okkk I now understand what you mean, thanks for clarifying though. Thought they all had to be plugged into the motherboard.
