AIO cooler for 7600K

We really need to know what case, motherboard, RAM and GPU are you using before we can suggest coolers. I would not use a CLC because they are not a quiet, don't last as long, generally cost more and when pump does fail (99.99% of CLC problems are pump) there is no cooling so no computer to use until cooler is replaced. With air there is only the fan to fail, and if one does system will still run at low load or with any fan held on with a rubberband until new fan is in hand.

There are a few (very few) AIO (not CLCs) that are decent. CLCs are a sub-group of AIO. AIOs that are not CLCs have a fill port to top up coolant and service system, threaded fittings so hoses can be cut to length or other components added/replaced as needed, copper radiator, etc. They are more like a low cost custom loop. CLCs are factory sealed with no way to top up coolant or service system as well as hose and fittings cannot be changed .. CLCs are use and throw away.

A good air cooler costs less, lasts way longer (like forever), are quieter and easily cool as well as CLCs, especially at same noise levels. Only thing about air cooling vs water is case airflow needs to be setup to match component airflow needs.
