[SOLVED] Best AIO under 150 $

[bonezor]

Hello guys, as the title say I want to know what's the best AIO I can get under 150$, I am building my new computer and I wanted a AIO cooler to pair with my 3700x,I usually stream with dual monitors and maybe I will overclock in the future even though this cpu does not have much room for it. I know that a air cooler would be better suitable perhaps but I don't like the visuals of it in the case, they are bulky. Since I have a 150$ budget for one I am aiming mainly for a quiet and a cooler one (with stockfans), I will be putting it on front 280mm and will put the 3 case fans beQuiet purewings 2, two on top exhausting and 1 rear exhausting. I'm leaning towards the corsair hydro i115 pro rgb ,but I would like to get your opinions, if there is any aio that is more budget friendly and it servers my purposes. My system is:

• BeQuiet 500dx Case
• Ryzen 7 3700x
• Motherboard Asus X570 Prime-P
• DDR4 3600mhz CL16 TridentZ
• GTX 1070ti MSI Gaming 8GB
• 500GB Kingston A2000 SSD M2 NVMe | 250GB SSD Samsung Evo 860 | 1TB Seagate HDD

Any info you guys need just ask. Thanks!

If you are in America, then I would recommend the Kraken X62 Rev. 2.0.
I have this cooler on top of a 6700K and it performs very well for me front mounted as intake inside the Fractal Design Meshify C TG.

If you are not living in America, then you should probably specify where you live since price and availability of components can vary drastically across the world.

And if that's the case, then you should specify the budget in your own currency, because otherwise, when I see this $ symbol, I automatically assume USD.

The X62 however is currently out of stock everywhere, and if you are looking to get something right now, then the next option I would suggest is something like the Arctic one linked above.

If you wanted to hit the $150 budget right on the nose you could go for the X63

Pick the retailer of your choice.

Otherwise, to go a little bit cheaper you can opt for the following.
For a 280mm option the Corsair H115i

Or for 240mm option the NZXT Kraken X53

I live in Portugal so the currency is Euro. The x62 is 150 euros, while the h115i platinum rgb. Both would be good right? in terms of aesthetics I prefer the Corsair h115i plat, one thing that I am kinda confused is , I plan to mount the 280mm rad on front with fans as intake and put my 3 case fans as exhaust two on top and one on rear, will I have any problem with the intake airflow because with the radiator the air will be more hot right? so the case will have an hotter airflow. Thanks for the awnsers

it honestly doesn't make much of a difference either way.
Make it intake on the front, or if the case supports it, make it exhaust on the top.

Your choice.

And since now I know what country and currency I can say that if you're going to spend the 150 euros, I would suggest the X63 instead.

Looks sleek and performs great.

You can use this website to look around at other options if you like using the options on the left side of the website to filter the radiator size for either 240mm or 280mm options.
