Hi I’m currently trying to chose my cpu cooler for my ryzen 5 3600. I currently am looking at These aio coolers as I want to cool my cpu with an aio. 

before I list my choices I would like to mention that I am using the Corsair icue 220t case. It has room for a 120 aio and a 240 aio I do not want to move the front fans.

As I want to add 3 more of the rgb fans that come with the case would it be ok to put them on my aios I need to know that before deciding. (One rgb fan on the 120 two on the 240)

1. Corsair h60 2018 

this is a 120 mm aio will this be enough to cool my ryzen 3600 and do I have a small amount of over clocking headroom ? Would I be able to put the fans listed above on it and still get good cooling ?

2. Corsair h100i 240 aio 

if the first listed aio will not work will this give me good cooling and over clocking head room. Would I still have good cooling if I installed 2 of the rgb fans listed above.

3. If nether will work can you recommend any other 120 or 240 aios for cooling (preferably by Corsair but not necessary)

would the fans listed above work on them. 

If the fans I want to add will not work I will just leave the stock fans on the aio. but I would prefer to be able to have more rgb bling. 

 

Thanks I’ll reply to any suggestions

120mm aio is enough but you will be judged for using an aio that can easily be beaten by air coolers.

frostytech also has aircoolers(and low-profile) test results as well.

 

The top end Air towers are cheaper and overall better...but.. AIO can look better, can be easier to install...and most importantly allow for transport without having to worry about the heatsink.
