Just grabbed a steal of a deal on FB Marketplace for a pretty much good as new Lian Li 011D Evo, only paid £50 for it. Looking at replacing my Noctua D15 Chromax Black with a 360 AIO in hopes of better cooling my 14700k. I haven't attempted to rebuild my PC in the new case yet, I will be doing so shortly.

I have a Fractal Meshify C at the moment and its crammed full with a 340mm GPU and no middle fan. It is also a nightmare to tear down and work on. I think this cooler might not fit this Lian Li case either.

I am looking at the following two AIOs unless someone else has a better recommendation at the same price point.

I original wanted the none RGB version as I don't really like too much RGB. I noticed the fans on the ARGB version push slightly less air, does it really matter? Should I wait for the original one to come back in stock or get the cheaper ARGB model and just not plug the cable for the lighting in?

Thanks.
