Verdict

ASUS ROG STRIX LC III 360 ARGB

8.1 / 10 Expert Rating

A sensible mainstream entry point into ASUS's ROG cooling ecosystem for buyers who don't need the RYUJIN III's flagship display.

ID-COOLING SE-226-XT

7 / 10 Expert Rating

A genuinely functional dual-tower cooler for the tightest budgets, with less independent validation than the category leaders.
