$5 vs $500 CPU Cooler! 🤯

[MSDhaliwal]

The drop from stock cooler to $30 cooler is MASSIVE $30 cooler FTW

[sokerok]

i love how theres a 0.2c difference between the 100$ aio and the 500$ aio

[RobBob]

You should try this again with a 7800x3d or a 14900k

I always choose air coolers, less problems, regards from Mexico.

[scarthy]

Not featuring the Thermalright Peerless Assassin is wild considering its only like 30-40 bucks, and is comparable to some liquid coolers and top of the line Noctua's

[SituDe-ft]

Depending upon your cpu, a air cooler might good enough but for higher end CPUs like the i9s or ryzen 9s it is a good choice to liquid cool them. I think in this video the overall best cooler he mentioned is the 4th cooler, the deepcool gamaax 240.

[heyyyyyyyyyy]

Arctic Liquid freezer III laughing in the corner at 70$ (360mm)

[InfernoBlast-thot]

Deepcool products are great. They are built well, last quite sometime and are reliable. They are very cheap in my country, like now and then many items are sold out.

[CoolGuyGamerz]

I would try out the liquid arctic freezer 3 or the ekwb 360mm aio

[dachness]

Thermalright Phantom Spirit(Flat Top), Artic Freezer III 360mm and 420 should have been referenced.

[Toni-PAT]

The 30 dollar one has the best value. Amazing difference of 20 degrees

[Mrparkdog]

Best thing about an air cooler is it will likely never fail after a long ass time and can be used on numerous builds

[simplyharley]

Probably the nzxt for the warranty and easy drivers and capabaility to use all my fans with one program rather than 3/4

I’d do the Thermalright Assassin King 120 SE (ARGB or non-RGB, I’d probably go with non) with 5 heat pipes, costs like $20 and seems really good

[accuratemrstuff]

seems like the $30 air cooler is the clear value winner, however i wonder how this would compare on a more high-powered CPU like a 14900k for example.

a test like this makes anything above $100 seem really stupid, however anything more than the $30 air cooler with a 5600x is complete overkill and probably won’t make much difference, the PC probably notices the temps and makes the high end coolers run low the whole time, but i bet the higher-end coolers would make more a difference on a CPU that would need more cooling

[Ninjacan]

Ok listen up.
I got an old aio from a prebuilt.
I bought a new pump a second radiator some small rubber pipes you see in pools and fish tanks and some distilled water.
Cost maybe 60 bucks.
I have a custom water loop with 2 radiators and all the pipes are held together with crymps and flex seal. It doesn’t leak and it keeps my cpu nice a cool.
So it don’t take nothing expensive. It looks ghetto but it works

[dotakvkn]

Tbh around $30 the thermalright Peerless Assassin or Phantom Spirit does the job better imo and I'd choose that again because the temp difference isn't a lot

[ckiru]

Should’ve got the Thermalright aios they’re cheap and amzing they’re aqua elite v3 costs 50$ and u can get 3.7inch lcd screen ones for 120$

[bluewave]

As long as it stays under 60, I’m considering it more than good enough.

[Warp]

The reason the 360 did worse then the 240 is that it generally runs way quiter as the 3 fans dont need to spin very fast if its not getting hot either way
