Arctic Freezer II 360. Cools my 9900k even at 200amps of load. Quite cheap also.

it looks like it wont fit in my system which is a bummer

Have you a tiny case?

It's a fractal r6 Asus maximus X hero mobo. Top mounting will hit the ram and completely cover the CPU fan header my s36 aio covers the headers but only just above the ram. The artic is 8 mm thicker

I have an NZXT Kraken Z63 280mm AIO in my Fractal Design Nano S keeping my 9900K nice and cool. It's expensive but I like the fact I can glance over and see my CPU and GPU temp whilst gaming.

That seems warmish to me my s36 is under 30 at idle around 25-28 but then again the 9900k is even hotter than my 8700k

That's not at idle! Outlook, browser open, VPN, RDP to work and Shadow of war running (minimised)

Cool

intake at front

I'm not really sure about that as there's not really anywhere to do any intake as the bottom of the case is covered for the PSU shroud

I take it I would have to swap the fans around as the hose looks like its fixed?
