Looking to get into AIO cooling

[ahsan.shockwave]

So i recently built my pc, its running :
GTX 1050Ti
Ryzen 3 1200
Corsair VS450
and in the corsair carbide spec 01 case

In my budget of about 6,000 indian rupees im looking to get an AIO cooler mainly because of how bulky air coolers look

my shortlist is as follows :
Corsair H45
Corsair H60
DeepCool Maelstrom 120t
Coolermaster masterliquid 120 lite

And my final option is an air cooler, the coolermaster g100m

Whats the best option for me as im going to try to overclock my system a little bit as well

Thank you for the help

If you are looking into AIO, that means you are looking into upgrading your PC's CPU, maybe not now but it'll come sometime in the future. Get something that you will be able to utilize not only now, but sometime in the future. I like the Corsair AIO's i have the h115i and h100i v2 like them both. the corsair ML series fans are great as well. a cooler like this might be overkill but you won't have issues with temps that's for sure

Im not sure how to quote a message and reply to it but
“the coolermaster g100m will be great for overclocking it will keep you temp about 60 and you will have no problam will overclocking”

is the g100m a better solution than the AIO cooling?

I tested the CoolerMaster G100M.

Not impressed and would not recommend unless you have a low-power CPU. Even when testing on smaller desktops, our test samples allowed CPUs to reach over 100 C. There are better options for air cooling, and AIO is not always better than a good air cooler.

The stock cooler on the Ryzen 1200 is sufficent enough for overclocking, really the only downside to it is that it can be kind of loud. Also for AIO's I'm not really a big fan of 120mm, if your case can support a 240mm AIO then I'd save up for one and then when you go get a significantly better CPU later on you'll have no problems with cooling & overclocking.

It's about surface area. AIO doesn't make sense until you get up to or past a 240 mm radiator. That would be silly on a Ryzen 1200.

Use a 120 mm tower-style air cooler.
