Help with picking AIO!

[Blightanker]

Hello everyone !, im looking to buy a new AIO to replace my wraith Prism for my 2700x which got i got it now running with PBO and maybe maybe in few months will overclock it when i get the new nvidia gpu's to get the most juice out of it.

Right now i was thinking to get arctic liquid freezer ii 280 after seing some great reviews about it but my little eye noticed only 2 years warranty which makes me worry about it since i will be replacing this rig in 2-4 years depending the changes

A strong candidate  was the  nxzt x62 for its 5 years and similar performance but 40 euros more expensive and corsair platinum 115i 

So my question is should i pick arctic or the warranty thing is just in my paronoia -When you do shopping also do you check that or just go with whatever you can afford or is the best performance money)

 

Was also thinking Noctua dh 15 since i know its really good and bought one for my friend and install it but the price for it right now is 115 e, 20 more than usual i guess due to the human malware inflating prices and also because i also got G skill rgb ram and kinda dont want to waste their look since i paid for it.

Any recomendation or idea is welcome ofcourse! 

my budget is up to 150 euro maybe 160e (after that i think doesnt really fit my budget / performance)

 

 

CPU: 2700X running bpo 4ghz- 4.050-4.1

RAM :Gskill 3200mhz 64gb 

Motherboard : x470 gaming F

Cpu Cooler : Wraith prism

gpu :asus 1060 gtx 6gb dual oc

It's hard to tell how long the Liquid Freezer II 280 would last since it's a new cooler and there hasn't been many examples to look at but it'll probably last 5+ years if it's anything like most good AIO's.

What case are you using?

It's up to you how much the money is worth to you. You can probably get away with spending less if you don't mind a less powerful cooler. Where are you shopping / located?

@WoodenMarker sorry forgot to mention my case i got a corsair 540 fitted with 2x 140mm 1x120 exhaust  and 3x 120 intakes (front panel) all are corsair fans 

well im looking from a greek site similar to amazon  called skroutz.gr but also i tend to buy from amazon.co.uk

I live in Greece as you understand

If you'd rather stick with an air cooler for longevity or save some money, the Fuma 2 doesn't hang over the ram and should be plenty for your cpu: https://www.skroutz.gr/s/19983369/Scythe-Fuma-2.html

If you prefer maximum cooling, you might as well go for the Liquid Freezer II 360 which isn't much more over the 280: https://www.skroutz.gr/s/20850548/Arctic-Liquid-Freezer-II-360.html

@WoodenMarker sorry if i dont make the tag right im idiot and dont know how ;s

360 sounds interesting just dunno if i have enough clearance because im scared the top end where hoses come off will hit the roof or the other fans maybe!?(at top) also isn't fuma way worse than noctua's nh-12s?

A 360mm can fit. Some examples: https://pcpartpicker.com/builds/by_part/wgkD4D#h=486,646,865,197

The Fuma 2 is a bit worse than the NH-D15 but it's still plenty for cooling, is cheaper, and doesn't cover the ram.

@WoodenMarker actually that was great idea's before i decide should i consider x62 is FAIRLY pricer but pump led makes it look great and the warranty is big plus even with it being what 2-3 years out already?

It's up to you what aesthetic you like and how much you're willing to pay for it.
