(53)
"Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 SE and it shits on my old aio. bargain"
"Phantom Spirit 120, forget about anything more spensive than 50$"

"Nah get a phantom spirit 120se"

Yeti
4.6

"It’s actually really awesome and has held up to pretty rough treatment for 6-7 years now."
"I've brought the same cooler every year, the last few years I only need a couple bags of ice the whole weekend."

"I went with artic freezer iii 360mm with this, at 100% usage it doesnt go above 70c."
"For a bit more expensive but probably the best (but also overkill for most), I'd prefer Arctic Freezer II."
