Verdict

Cooler Master MasterLiquid ML360 Sub-Zero

7.9 / 10 Expert Rating

Remarkable thermal ceiling for extreme overclockers, but overkill and software-dependent for typical builds.

Noctua NH-C14S

8.1 / 10 Expert Rating

A genuinely clever convertible design that earns its price premium in the specific builds it's meant for, not a general-purpose upgrade over a standard tower cooler.
