I currently have a Corsair H60 which has done me just fine for quite a while. My needs have changed and I need a better/bigger AIO for a 9900k. I get processor temp throttling because the H60 just can't deal.
When searching for an AIO, I see most require a 12v SATA connector to the pump. Is this standard now? Cable management already sucks, so dealing with another cable is annoying. (same with ones that require a USB header for the RGB control) Breakout boxes for pump/fan RGB is a non-starter for me.
Also, software control. I don't want to deal with it. Almost all I have looked at use a software control to manage the device. Can I not just use firmware control? Set the pump to FULL and fan based on temp?
Lastly, RGB. I don't want it. Sadly, all of these things are pimped out with RGB. I want one with an option to just turn the whole damn thing off.
So pretty much, I want 1) no RGB (or at least disable-able) and 2) motherboard header pump and fan control for a 240mm AIO loop. Does this unicorn exist and who makes it?
