I have an old 2600k system that sits in a corner running unRaid and occasionally a few VMs. No Plex or other transcoding and its back down at stock clocks - that CPU will likely never work hard again.

It has a Corsair AIO that must be getting on for 10 years old now and it is getting a little loud and also running 24/7.

I don't need spectacular cooling performance but I do want quiet and as I've maxed out the memory at 8Gbx4 it needs to raise over Corsair LPX DDR3 RAM - RAM clearance if the nearest slot was in use was definitely a thing when I built it hence the AIO. Case is some mid-tower Coolermaster they likely haven't made for a decade and the mainboard is a Gigabyte Z68XP-UD3P.

Any recommendations and things to look out for? Most coolers still seem to list 1155 in the compatibility list.
