[SOLVED] Cooling the i9 9900k

[darwin29.j]

Hi I am building a new pc and would like to oc the i9 9900k to 5 GHz. The problem is that I have a case that can only go up to 280mm aio and can’t fit in a 360mm aio. I could try to squeeze in a water cooling kit for more money. Currently I am thinking of buying the kraken x62 will that be enough to keep my cpu at safe temps when overclocked to 5GHz.
Thanks

Really a 280mm should be fine if you dont mind it getting a lil toasty.

9900k to 5ghz and you going with AIO.. really ?
AIO are for small case where you cant fit a good air cooler and want little, little little over clocking.

-get a bigger Case and custom water cooling you got a 9900K for god sake XD

-you can get to 5ghz with AIO but getting to 5ghz, running a test bench there is one thing and staying there and being able to use that speed for extended period of time is different.
