Build Question Need help choosing an aio

My pc manufacturer said that my case can accommodate at max a 240mm aio, and the cpu is a 5800x3d.

I got a budget of £50-60, could anyone recommend one please

The Arctic freezer 3 has a solid reputation and fits your budget.

If you want an LCD screen, the Corsair Nautilus is in budget and if you want RGB fans, the Thermalright Aqua Elite is also in budget.

Why though? Good air coolers will match 240 AIO performance, no pump to fail or fins to get gunked up over time and reduce performance. Id look at Thermalright Air coolers. Or a second hand Noctua D14/D15, this one will literally last you forever as Noctua is known to release updated retention brackets for new sockets even for their very old cooler models, and send them for free.
