Good morning! Here’s a concise overview to help you improve your PC cooling setup:

1) Consider swapping your two 2*200mm fans for three 140mm fans at the front. This should enhance airflow without affecting PWM operation, and since you’ve already replaced noisy fans, it should reduce overall noise. The MF200mm RGB with a 140mm extraction is a solid choice.

2) For the best performance, I recommend the Cooler Master MF Argb 140mm or the NoiseblockereLoop X B14-P. Both offer strong cooling and good compatibility with your current setup.

3) If you only have an ARGB port on your motherboard, you can use a splitter to switch between RGB modes. This gives you flexibility without needing multiple fans or complex setups.

Let me know if you need more details!

The 2x200mm setup will work significantly better than the 3x140mm option. Alternatively, purchasing two 2x200mm units would be a viable choice.

Thank you for your question. Which model would you prefer? For the 200 mm PWM, only this fan Pure 20 ARGB Sync in 140 mm PWM: Coller Master MF Argb NoiseblockereLoop X B14-P. Regarding the Thermatake 14 argb pure, I’m curious if it’s better to stick with my Bequiet Dark Rock Pro 4 or upgrade to an AIO with 280mm/360mm and overclocking? Also, could you consider using watercooling with options like the Eisbaer d’Alphacool aura 360/280 mm for better cooling?

This dark rock model is likely much quieter than any available AIO and offers better reliability. With your current temperatures, you should be able to reduce the fan speed significantly for near-silent operation.
