Why the hell are people pairing 120mm AIOs with 8-core cpus...:pfff:

Gaming: (y)
Streaming: You'll most likely be using NVENC(gpu). The 9700K(F) only has 8 threads, and the results will be found a bit lacking if you want to stream via the cpu.
Editing: 👌

That cooler needs to go though. That's not going to stay cool once you start working up over 50% of the cpu.
I say that because 120mm is only really efficient on pure quad cores or less.

And at most part not as good as good air coolers :)

What cooler do you recommend?
