Also consider the new Icegiant ProSiphon Elite [0]. Mine is arriving in September (due to Coronavirus related delays) but initial tests of prototypes by LTT [1] and others showed better cooling than AIO water cooling. Also since it uses dielectric fluid there’s no risk of leakage and frying your expensive computer. It’s $169 MSRP but based on what I’ve seen seems worth it. I’m not associated with them in any way just think it looks like a cool new product!

- p1esk 6y agoYes, if it is as good as it seems, I don’t see any reason to use water cooling anymore.
- wincy 6y agoOne drawback of AIOs that I've read about is that you're no longer air cooling the VRMs surrounding the socket, which can decrease the life of your motherboard. They also recently decided to include 4 120mm fans in the package, two push and two pull, which is a pretty crazy amount of air cooling.

- ADent 6y agoIf you believe their copy it won’t work on most computers in a tower case, since the CPU isn’t on the bottom and it uses a gravity feed to return the liquid.
- p1esk 6y agoThis used to be the main problem with this technology and they claim they solved it.
