Hello everyone,
I am upgrading from a scythe kotetsu cooler which is just to big and clunky for my liking. I also have a mini atx case so its hard to cable manage with it in the way. I want to get an AIO, but im not sure if i need a 240mm? or 120/180? I have a cooler master master box lite 3.1 case, an asus b250M-A mobo, and a intel i5 7500 cpu. I also have a budget of around $80-$100. I have checked these out, but i'm not sure if theres anything better for the price? Thanks!
 
Any 240mm is plenty for that CPU.

This would be my recommendation in that price range.

If you can stretch the budget a bit, this would be a much better option IMO.
