Arctic liquid freezer 3 pro rgb vs Corsair nautilus rs for ryzen 9800x3D silent operation

Build Question

Hello , so which one of the two ? I’ve borrowed artic just for the test purpose and on 9800x3D -30 undervolt no oc - getting 65ish cyberpunk pathtracing qhd and synthethic benchmark is 70-78c . Now that’s with “quiet” settings set to fans at 20% and pump at 40% . But obviously I’m kinda looking into future upgrades as well possibly with the cpu that runs hotter. I’m quite sensitive to noise either from fans or the pump humming so I’ll always look for silent noise normalise cooling . So my question is in this silent setting , which one would perform better ?

Generally from what I’ve gathered artic got noisier pump and quieter fans and the Corsair the other way around. The AIO is just for design purpose , I know air cooler is all that’s needed
