AIO cooler for O11 Mini. 240 intake or 360 exhast

[DotA]

Looking to change my current coller set up when the new AM5 CPUs hit.

Currently havve an O11 mini and wondering if theres much difference between 240 intake or a 360 exhast set up.

Trying to decide if i go MATX 360 aio or atx 240 aio as an intake.

any peoples advice with experiance with this would help.

cheers

If the CPU you’re looking for is anything like the 7800x3d, a Phantom Spirit is plenty. A 240mm AIO should be ok. Particularly, not a big fan of AIO as intake. May be worth if using a hot Intel CPU where every little help is needed, but for gaming alone, the drawbacks of noise and temperature for the GPU being fed warmer air are bigger than the CPU AIO or heatsink being fed warmer air. I would only consider intake AIO if the CPU is thermal throttling and needs cooler air, but that shouldn’t happen if enough airflow is available with the case design / fans available.
