Verdict

Arctic Liquid Freezer III Pro 360 ARGB

9 / 10 Expert Rating

The strongest 360mm AIO you can buy, and still not expensive.

Intel Laminar RM1

4 / 10 Expert Rating

A purely functional stock cooler that does its narrow job and nothing more; almost any aftermarket cooler on this list is a clear upgrade.
