CPU cooler vs AIO cooler

AshB1989 · 8 Nov 2020 at 13:04

I've just bought an Artic 34 esports duo, but considering changing for an AIO cooler.

Can you recommend any cheap ones thatll fit the B550 Mortar mobo and CoolMaster 320L m-atx case. I've seen one on OC for £50 but no if it is any good.

Thanks

Why do you want an AIO over the artic?

AIO are inconspicuous and will hide at the top of my case, as opposed to the Artic 34, which takes up a lot of room.

So essentially its aesthetics > performance if I get a cheap AIO?

What sort of money am i looking at for a decent aio?

I could stretch to that in fairness. Wondering whether it is necessary as I wont be overclocking it.

Alright, fairly conclusive - I'll keep the Artic34.

I have an esports cooler, it's decent, give it a try first before saddling yourself with an aio

Will do, my man.
