I built a PC based on a Phanteks case. Excellent quality, IIRC their design team is in Europe.
I have a Liquid CPU cooler in this PC (different brand) and it cools well with minimal noise. Certainly worth extra $ over a traditional air cooler.

I've had 360 version of this and been super happy. It looks gorgeous! And it uses Asetek latest 7th gen pumps which is same pump as Nzxt Z73/X73. It runs quiet and keeps my 5950x very cool at around 69 degrees at full load in push pull configuration

Newegg has been a solid and reliable retailer ever since I first bought from them 10+ years ago. Sure, their Newegg Shuffle was atrocious, but really none of the other retailers have done any better.

Ditto to what the others said in this thread about Phanteks. Great brand, good design. Most of the AIOs on the market will be about the same in reliability since they use Asetek pumps/designs anyway.

Phantek makes the best cases on the market. I don't know if they apply the same standards for their AIO. Worth a try at this price.

In 2021, there are probably less than 10 retailers in the entire U.S. you can buy anything from, why do you want less?

This vs the aio below, which one would be better. I don't overclock much but I want to get rid of my regular giant air cooler.

Arctic for slightly better thermal performance (I have that Arctic AIO, and it does follow trends of professional reviews in outperforming my previous Asetek-OEM AIO), and Phanteks for aesthetics, depending on which aspect you care for more with your own build.

Phanteks is a well known company, but I think more for cooling peripherals. My CPU cooler is a Phanteks.

The T30 is the real deal, too bad it's not on sale yet. This series all feature the 7th gen Asetek pump as you see in many other AIOs, which is good.

I'd seriously considerate the $70 Cooler Master MasterLiquid 280 AIO. 280VS240 makes a big difference (36% more radiator surface).
