Air cooler vs WC 13700k

Hello,  my Last upgrade was to a 7 13700k. Not doing oc. Pc idling most of the time.  When I do use it is for games like ready or not, civ, csgo, diablo.

Currebtly have a deep cool ls720 but my pump is failing so now im thinking.  Deepcool ak620 or thermaltake C360 kit. I wont go for a AiO anymore.  I live in argentina and prices are somewhat skechy so the 620 is half of the price of the kit.  Is the air cooler going to be enough?   I work on that pc and silence or low noise is important for me. Any suggestions?

What case do you have? What are the limits for the size of a cooler?

 

How old is your LS720?

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.
