hey i recently upgraded to an I7 14700k and i need help cooling it. im currently using a corsair H150I Pro XT I think it's due a change by now. im struggling to decide what cooler to get since i really dont know whats good or bad. i want to avoid corsairs software like the plague since its useless and crashes all the time. I want something aesthetically pleasing preferably compatible with Asus Aura.

im currently looking at:
https://uk.deepcool.com/products/Co...uid-Cooler-with-LCD-1700-AM5/2024/18063.shtml
but i cant find much information on if they're good or not. my friend has the LT720 but his is cooling an I5 13600K and i dont know how much of a difference in temps there is between our CPU's.

The in terms of Case fans im using Corsairs LL120's and once again due to the software i want out. noice wise i havent really complained until i got this CPU and things now get a little toasty and i hear them ramp up a little more. The same friend recommended the "Be quiet lightwings" since they are also Aura compatible but im not sure if theyre better or worse in terms of performance and noise than what im currently using and whether or not they'd be good as Radiator fans or not.

im sorry for sounding stupid with these questions or help on this topic i just dont wanna make a dumb choice and buy stuff thats worse than what i have currently.
 
Both those links take me to Deepcool's main site. What cooler are you looking at from their portfolio?

IMHO, your current radiator/AIO is 360mm, you should be fine with it.
sorry for the slow reply. i was looking at the DeepCool LT720 or the DeepCool Mystique. I'm not sure about my cooler though just yesterday i launched star wars battlefront 2 (2017) and my temp shot up to 98°c admittedly while gaming it came back down and sat around 75°c - 85°c but that just seems high to me.
