Kraken M22 for 3600/10400f

[_lucalink]

I’m building a new pc and love the look of NZXT AIO’s but can’t decide which to get. I haven’t decided on what cpu to use yet but it will most likely be either the 3600 or 10400f. My question is, will the Kraken M22 be good enough for those cpus? I want a NZXT cooler, but the cheapest model is the X53 which is £120 vs £55 for the m22. I will more likely get the 3600 and would want to overclock so would the m22 work for that?

a much cheaper air cooler would be better than the M22. You don't need an AIO.

This. Hyper 212 or any NH-D15 variant literally outperform most AIOs
But it doesn't have RGB so it's objectively an inferior product.

As I said, I want one because of how it looks. I know I could save money on an air tower. All I’m asking is whether it will cool them well enough.

It would technically work, but why??? You could just use the stock cooler and then buy a 5600x.

That would cost £65 more than 3600 with m22
