Hey everyone! I'm currently on the hunt for an AIO CPU cooler that fits well with my build and is also budget-friendly. Here's my setup: I'm using a Corsair Carbide 200R case with a Ryzen 5 5600 CPU, an RX6700 XT 12GB OC GPU, and a Gigabyte B450M K motherboard. My budget is around 10,000 INR. Any recommendations would be appreciated! Thanks!

Why are you leaning toward an AIO? There are plenty of air coolers that perform just as well or even better in that price range. If you're set on an AIO, I'd suggest checking out the Arctic Freezer III—it gives you great cooling without breaking the bank.
If you're still set on getting an AIO, check out brands like Thermalright and ID-Cooling. They have some great models that are more affordable compared to others.
Honestly, I wouldn't recommend an AIO for your Ryzen 5 5600. It's such a low-power CPU that even a basic air cooler like the Wraith Stealth should handle it without any issues. If budget is a concern, an AIO isn't necessary at all.
I've got the Wraith Stealth, and I'm hopeful it will do the job.
You really don’t need an AIO for the 5600; it's very efficient and won't need that much cooling. If airflow is a worry because of your case, consider an affordable single tower cooler instead. Something like the ID-COOLING A620 Pro SE is a solid choice without costing too much. But if you still want an AIO, the Thermalright Aqua Elite 240mm is a decent option for about $45.
I'm open to any cooling suggestions! My friend mentioned AIOs, and since I live in Delhi where it's quite warm, I'm looking for something that can handle the heat.
