Building a new system with an i5-14600K and need cooling recommendations. Planning some moderate overclocking in a Fractal Meshify 2 case.

My budget is around $120-140, and I'd prefer something reliable with decent RGB (compatible with MSI Mystic Light ideally).

Considering the Corsair H100i, EK AIO Basic, and Arctic Liquid Freezer II.

Is a 240mm sufficient for this CPU or should I stretch for a 280/360mm? Also concerned about pump noise.

Appreciate any firsthand experiences!

For the i5-14600K with moderate overclocking, a 240mm AIO like the Arctic Liquid Freezer III 240 is a great choice.

I'd recommend the Corsair H100i RGB Elite. It's perfect for the 14600K - my temps stay in the 60s during gaming and low 70s under full load. The RGB looks clean without being over the top, and the iCUE software gives you good control. Installation was straightforward and the LGA1700 bracket comes included.
