240 vs 280 AIO

[Lvl8pidgey]

What is the actual difference in performance between 240mmvs280mm aio rads? I'll probably have my delidded 7700k overclocked to 1.3-1.35v. I have a kraken x52(240mm) and a krakenx62(280mm), the x52 fits my current setup better but I'd be willing to move a few things around and buy bigger fans if needed for the x62. What kind of differences would I see if I were to test them both? I would test myself but the CPU hasn't arrived yet and I need to return one soon. Thanks for any info!

The CPU has not arrived yet, and you're worrying about the specific voltage after you delid it?

All things being equal, a 280mm would give better cooling than a 240mm.
How much better? Impossible to say. Too many other variables.

Well if people who have tried 240mm vs 280mm aio's in the same build it would give a pretty clear idea. And I mentioned the voltage because I think it's one of the more important variables, not worried about it. Just saying I plan to run it at 1.3-1.35 consistently

have a read here those 2 are included in his testing

though i didnt actually read it all but guessing somewhere after the first page will be results
