Best AIO to go for I9-14900KS (sorry probably asked a lot?)

[Mas_uk]

Hi,

Looking for some advice, looking to upgrade my Corsair H100i 240mm to a better 360mm AIO for my I9-14900ks as we all probably know it gets a tad hot!.

Looking around a lot of reviews and different opinions on different AIO's

One's i've been looking at are:

• Lian Li Galahad II Trinity SL-INF
• Arctic Liquid Freezer III High Performance
• EK Water Blocks EK-Nucleus CR360 Lux
• ASUS ROG Ryujin III 360 Performance

I have a Asus GT502 case so 360mm is the biggest radiator i can get. Just wondering which of those or even if theres a better one to go for, the Asus ROG is a bit pricey but if its the one to go for well id bite the bullet.

Also possibly looking into doing a push and pull config on the radiator though it may be a tight fit on the GT502 unless i take the lid off the top and have fans popping out of the case instead lol

Just wondering peoples thoughts?

Thanks in advance!

Regards
Paul

I agree to go for the Arctic freezer III but its a bit fatter than other aio's and i dont think push pull will fit at the top.

Yeah just thinking on the gt502 the top comes off so possibly able to put fans on top instead might look iffy but thinking of getting so dust covers etc

Yeah i had the freezer II and it was one of the Best AIO - beat expensiver once by a few C and had VRM cooling in the heatsink !

look at reviews and see which one has the least people saying the pump failed without warning

This is a good review, also you can see how it will perform on Intel.

The Ultimate 240mm AIO Roundup for Intel & AMD

These are the best 240mm AIO's you can buy in 2024....at least some of them CLAIM to be the best on both Intel and AMD. But a lot of these all in one liquid...

I use the new artic freezer with my 13900ks, cracking aio and very easy to fit.

Freezer III to echo the above, just make sure it'll fit as it's thicker than most AIO's.

Also make sure its compatible with your motherboard as it could interfere with the nvme heatsink sure the information is on their website

With the arctic you need to use their contact frame on Intel (not everyone is comfortable removing the old one and fitting the new one) all the other AIO you mentioned don't require this.

Yeh it can be tricky to mount but don't let it put you off, best way is to leave the cpu in the socket to prevent damage, also a little tip put electrical tape on the support bracket on the back of the motherboard to keep it in place as it can move.

A phase change one.

haha, those were the days

 

[clone]

Aye I had a couple of them, wasn't for me as it took a lot of electricity and time to set up correctly.

 

[Mas_uk]

Cheers foe the responses ordered the arctic iii which should hopefully arrive tomoz or Thurs so fingers crossed all goes in OK!

Always stand by Arctics, Thick rads on those big boys.

Nice any problems just ask

 

[Mas_uk]

will do, only issue i think i may have is if the radiator+fans fit the top of the case as i think it may be a very tight fit and may block me getting the mobo cables in but will see
