I'm trying to decide between the ID-COOLING FX360 and the Deepcool LT720 liquid CPU coolers for my AMD Ryzen 5 5600. They both seem like solid options, but I'm not sure which one is better suited for this CPU. Any advice would be appreciated!

Honestly, the Ryzen 5 5600 is pretty efficient and doesn't run hot at all. I’ve used a 240mm AIO with my 5600x, and it felt like overkill. You could easily get away with a cheap air cooler under $20 and save some cash for a GPU upgrade instead. If you don't mind a bit of noise, the stock cooler will also do just fine for gaming.

So maybe I should just go with an air cooler then?
