Which AIO between these two?

I’m looking to try an AIO.

Have seen the Lian Li GA II Lite and Corsair Nautilus 360 RS.

The Corsair is £11 more than the Lian Li.

Anyone have any experience with either?
 
Have a look at Thermalright also, they’re insane value for money.
Just to add, I had 3 Corsair AIO’s and all 3 pumps failed (although many on here haven’t had problems).

Any Thermalright specific models to keep an eye on?

I current have Thermalright Peerless Assassin heatsink that’s been great. Just fancy playing with an AIO to try and tame my 5800X3D.

Mind you, that CPU is so extremely thermally dense, it’ll probably approach thermal limits regardless of cooler.

You won't really gain anything going to an AIO over the Peerless Assassin.

The only AIO that you will maybe gain 3-4C on, probably at the same fanspin/pump noise, is the Arctic Liquid Freezer III Pro 360/420MM AIO's, and you need 68MM clearance in the roof for either, and a compatible motherboard (which you can check on Arctic's product page).

Either way, you're not going to gain anything, other than taking up more space, and possibly gaining pump noise.
 
Second the arctic, good value for money but the thermalright and thermaltake are also very good.

One of the benefits of the 360aio would be the heatsoak. For short sharp burst of heat it will absorb and take the heat without increasing speeds. Does balance put over time so as above it's not going to noticeably give you lower temps. And pump noise/ gurgle can be an issue for some.
 
I have a 5800X3D running on a single tower Thermalright Assassin King 120 and it's absolutely fine, - 30 offset.

There's really no point in changing to an AiO from what you have shy of aesthetics.

If you don't already have an offset on the chip try setting one, it'll improve your temps more than a change of HSF.
