I mainly just want a new cooler because i think that my tower cooler is quite ugly and is very loud.

 

I would like an aio and was looking at this one https://a.co/d/eKz9V17 mainly due to the price but i also like the looks of it and the fans match the fans i currently have in my case. My current cooler is this https://a.co/d/844nHPd.

 

Id rather not spend over like $130(usd) I know that a aio is over kill on my cpu(7600x3d) but i only really care about the aesthetic of my computer.

For AMD, the top recommendation is hands down the Arctic LF3, best in class performance for a good price

 

Also try having a look at thermalrights AIOs

 

Both will be a cheaper than corsairs and should actually be better performing

System specs:

 

 

CPU: Ryzen 7 7800X3D [-30 PBO all core]

GPU: Sapphire AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX NITRO+

Motherboard: MSI MAG B650 TOMAHAWK WIFI

RAM: G.Skill Trident Z5 NEO RGB 32GB 6000MHz CL32 DDR5

Storage: 2TB SN850X, 1TB SN850 w/ heatsink, 500GB P5 Plus (OS Storage)

Case: 5000D AIRFLOW

Cooler: Thermalright Frost Commander 140

PSU: Corsair RM850e

Case Fans: Fractal Prisma (120 x6, 140 x3) + 2x40mm fans

Probably a fan setting issue as these thermalrights tend to be nice and quiet really. Check temps Id say and if they are fine probably too aggressive fan curve in bios. Regardless of what you get this would be an issue for noise.

 

As for aio's what case do you have? Arctic with the liquid freezer II and 3 is basically top dog and thermalright is very close but the value king.

I have a 3500x, and if i were to switch the fans on the lf3 would that effect much of the performance? Just want to know because i would much rather the fans i have in there now so they match which are the corsair rs120 argb. But if theres a big performance difference than I wouldn’t mind using the arctic ones.

i believe the arctic ones are actually a tad underpowered for the cooler and those rs120s are quite a bit better
