More like a sign that says I should stick with Noctua and not have to deal with cable problems with AIO >:P

Tbh I just might since the O11DXL is such a good airflow case although I was hoping the black edition of the U12A would be out by now but alas, that one has been delayed to Q2 urghh

Tbh I would do the same. If space and clearance isn't a constraint in your build there's very little gain from going AIO. The thing will last you a lifetime.. Just order new brackets if upgrading to new platforms.

If you're into heavy overclocks then a custom loop is going to be the next logical step up. But that also comes with caveat - i.e maintenance, risk of leak and pump eventually failing.

Yea and I am hella lazy to go that route regardless.

We will see. I wanted to get the NH-U12A since it's smaller than the D15 while performing pretty close to it but even that's out of stock. I could order from the US for about the same price but then it's gonna take 1-2 weeks to get here which means more waiting.... And the 5950x is supposed to get here by Wednesday! The estimated time was February 8th but I guess they were like surprise!

Urghhhhh. There's no winning in the current PC climate loll
