By far the most important is that it has a coolant temperature sensor and does fan control based on the coolant/water temperature and not the actual CPU temperature. CPU temperature will fluctuate a load depending on load, but coolant will take a long time to get to equilibrium. If you get an AIO without coolant sensor, you'll get annoying very rapid fluctuating and high fan speeds, even when coolant is 'cold'.

Give competitors' recommendations only where appropriate. If a user asks for Intel only (i.e. i5-12600k vs i5-13400?) recommendations, do not reply with non-Intel recommendations. Commenting on a build pic saying they should have gone AMD/Nvidia is also inappropriate, don't be rude. Let people enjoy things.

CPU Cooling problems: Just like 95C is normal for Ryzen, 100C is normal for Intel CPUs in many workloads. If you're worried about CPU temperatures, please look at reviews for the laptop or CPU cooler you're using.

The Arctic is one of the better ones, but I can stilll hear the pump noise. Maybe the EK Nucleus, although I haven't tried that one yet.
You're gonna wanna get theLian Li Galahad II Trinity
Whoever is telling you to get the arctic is still stuck in 2019
