Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • Switched to a much less expensive 360mm AIO with aRGB fans that will cool just as well. Nothing special about the Corsair AIO that warrants an extra $80.
  • It stays cool with a white 360mm RGB AIO cooler.
  • CPU Cooler | [Thermalright AQUA ELITE ARGB V4 66.17 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler](https://pcpartpicker.com/product/jpKnTW/thermalright-aqua-elite-argb-v4-6617-cfm-liquid-cpu-cooler-aqua-elite-360-white-argb-v4) | $52.19 @ Amazon
  • CPU Cooler: Switched to a less expensive 360mm AIO with aRGB fans that visually match all the other case fans in the system.
  • Much less expensive 360mm AIO with aRGB.

Cons

  • Nothing wrong with a white setup, if you have and want to spend money on how your PC looks then that's completely fine, but if you don't care you can save nearly $1000 without losing any performance.

CPU Cooler: Far less expensive white 360mm AIO with aRGB fans. Will provide the same cooling performance for less than half the cost.
