This is NOT really a "recommended" brand.

This is more of a better fit for your use case.

1: In short, this platform is for Intel based units, using the Arctic brand coolers.

Pretty much ANY of the cooler units will work fine.  (temperature spread is a couple degrees.)
Also, in terms of power draw are about 10w different between a 2 fan setup and a 3 fan setup (note: Small differentiation based on 120mm fans vs 140mm fans.

In terms of price of this brand is the TINY cost spread ($90-120).  Between the 240 and 420mm units s $28 (twenty eight).  That's disgustingly cheap.

The point is, if you're looking to stabilize your system out, it's cheaper than it's EVER been before.

I have been running AIO for cooling for last 20 years, never have I had one leak, ever.  I have only used corsair, and out of 15 or so AIOs I only have had 1 pump failure and zero leaks

I've had ONE leak.

On a "DIY" style AIO that's meant to be refillable and expandable.

At the time, it was the largest radiator available

That and I expect the technician was trying to pad my bill.

Cooked my CPU and motherboard.

All the AIOs not mean to be refillable?  They're good for 10-15 years BEFORE EVAPORATION SHOULD BE CONSIDERED.

And again, on an AIO that is around $90-120, that's a good deal (ammortized)
