Looking to buy an AIO tomorrow. Which one is better? Looking to cool a 9700k no extreme overclock. Mostly be used for gaming. EVGA CLC 280mm or Corsair H115i PRO/RGB?

Thanks

Bunch on info comparing both of them in the video below. In short, they perform basically identically, as they both use the same pump. The one thing I am not sure about is the software comparison. Corsair's software is very mature and just works. NZXT's software is really bad. But I have never used EVGA's, so that may be something that sets them apart.

Well I got $203 store Credit from Newegg for a return so I ended up buying the EVGA CLC 280mm. Gets here Monday. First time using an AIO. Hope it works well.

The EVGA cooler can get a little loud at max rpms. It's a great CLC though, and it beats a lot of 360mm units. It's cheap(ish) too.
