Hey everyone! I'm upgrading my PC from an i9-9900K to an i9-12900K, but I'm encountering some issues with temperatures. I initially thought my Arctic cooler would work, but it doesn't fit, so I've had to test it with another cooler. Now I'm in the market for a new one. I was wondering if the Corsair iCUE Link Titan 360 RX would be a solid choice to keep my temps in check, or if I should explore other options. Any insights would be appreciated! Thanks!

A 360mm AIO like the Corsair Titan will definitely keep that i9-12900K cool without any issues. However, you might want to think about whether it's really worth investing in a high-end CPU from 2021 that's on the now-dead LGA 1700 platform.
I see your point, but I really don't think I need the latest 14 series for my gaming needs. The 12 series should handle everything just fine, which is why I went with it.
