I've been trying to find an aio which is fairly quiet and has a good cooling performance from a reliable company, the max i would be willing to spend is around £160, i only need a 240mm one and would like one with an ldc screen (not a definate requirtement) or good looking rgb. Looks are important so I'm not going with arctic's aios since i dont like the look of them. Has anyone got any suggestions?

Any help is appreciated

Even for straight look AIO id still rather go for 280mm or 360mm. Are those supported by your case? If you want some recommendation check out LS720 by Deepcool and Fractal Design Lumen S28 and S36.

Arctic Liquid Freezer II seems to go out of stock for some reason, at least where I reside.

Perhaps because of the gunky gasket problem in some versions. Though I changed it and seems to work very well with new gasket. Just a bad rep and Arctic wants to distance from it perhaps.

I edit my posts more often than not

I think i may have selected a cooler but am not too sure

https://computerorbit.com/products/ekwb-ek-nucleus-cr240-lux-d-rgb-aio-cpu-cooler-240mm?ref=PCPP

Is this a good cooler and are there any that are cheaper, are just as good looking and have a good performance. I'm slightly put off by the 36db on pc part picker as i want something thats not too loud 

Edit: i think ive decided just to go with the ek-nucleus since all the reviews ive read of it seems very positive
