Hardware Canucks | Lets Settle This - Air Coolers vs AIOs @HardwareCanucks | Uploaded March 2024 | Updated October 2024, 6 days ago.
When it comes to choosing the best CPU cooler, the air cooling vs water cooling debate has been raging for years. But now with some of the best 240mm AIO's costing less than the best CPU heatsinks, performance and pricing might actually be in the favor of water cooling. Let's settle this debate once and for all with modern AMD AM5 and Intel LGA1700 CPUs tested in 2024 systems.
