Question Are there any AIO Coolers that don’t need control software ?

[snapdragon-x]

Are there any newer AIO coolers with displays that work well on Linux without requiring control software?
I know that many AIOs default to a basic settings without software, but the pump or fan speeds might not be customizable, and some displays could show error messages if software isn’t installed.

Arctic's Liquid Freezer is one;

where if you went with the ARGB version, you'd need software to manage the lighting. If you went with the non-ARGB version, you'd need the BIOS to manage the fans/pump.

For a picture on LCD screen on the pump it needs USB connection and SW to set/change display. Unless somebody releases "Smart" AIO that is,

Can I assume every AIO that can display the CPU temperature or other data needs a USB connection and dedicated software on the OS level running?

To make it work there would have to be some kind of CPU built into the AIO. In addition to be completely without needing software loaded on the client machine it would need a bunch of temperature probes.
All the temperature numbers you see are on from sensors inside the cpu chip itself or on the motherboard. You only have access to these from software running on the main OS.
