I'm looking to get
Intel Core i7-8700 Coffee Lake 6-Core 3.2 GHz LGA 1151 (300 Series) BX80684I78700 Desktop Processor Intel UHD Graphics 630

But concerned that a MasterLiquid 120 Pro All-in-one CPU Liquid Cooler
will not be enough to cool it????

Any thoughts?

Thank you

It is non-K, so not overclockable CPU. The stock cooler that comes with it is supposed to be enough, so any sensible water cooler should be more then enough.

MasterLiquid 120 Pro wont cool a 7700k, so with two more cores certainly won't be enough to cool a 8700k.

Consider NH-D15 or similar or a much larger AIO. 280mm - 360mm. Make sure cooler will fit in case.

oops should have read op a little more carefully, 8700 my bad. At Least step up to a 240mm AIO.

Sorry to the wrench at ya, I think it's best to overkill on cooler a bit. Better safe than sorry.

Saw a lot 120mm AIO failing to provide needed cooling on 7700.
