What is the cheapest aio that I can get from Amazon that can cool a 5600x and ideally doesn’t have rgb fans and is 360mm. I know an aio is unnecessary and bad price to performance but I’m more concerned with aesthetics for this build.

 

Would the thermalright frozen prism 360 in black be okay?

Yes. Any 360mm AIO can cool the 5600x.

The Thermalright frozen prism 360 will do the job with ease 🙂

Is it reliable?

Probably uses a basic ASETEK pump ( The most common pump patent ) like any other AIO in its price range. 

It should be just as reliable as any other AIO out there 🙂

It comes with 5 years warranty from Thermalright ( Checked on their own website )

It is not Asetek. I have been using one for 6 months, so far so good.

the arctic freezer 2 line up is very cheap now, and it performs like a champ 

LF3 is cheaper than LF2 here in the US.... during the sale, which goes till May. 

I've been using computers since around 1978, started learning programming in 1980 on Apple IIs, started learning about hardware in 1990, ran a BBS from 1990-95, built my first Windows PC around 2000, taught myself malware removal starting in 2005 (also learned on Bleeping Computer), learned web dev starting in 2017, and I think I can fill a thimble with all that knowledge. 😉 I'm not an expert, which is why I keep investigating the answers that others give to try and improve my knowledge, so feel free to double-check the advice I give.

I have the TR Frozen Notte 360. It does pretty well with only one exhaust fan on the front, side and top. Add more fans if needed or simply upgrade the AIO's fans.
