240, 280 or 360 mm?
Bigger cools better, but only if the radiator fits your case. Unsure? A good air cooler is a fine alternative.
- 240 mm (2 x 120 mm fans): enough for most 6- and 8-core processors, and fits many mid-size cases.
- 280 mm (2 x 140 mm): more cooling surface with larger, often quieter fans.
- 360 mm (3 x 120 mm): for powerful processors that work hard for long periods, such as rendering or streaming while gaming.
