Case: CoolerMaster H500P
PSU: Corsair RM750x 2018
CPU: Ryzen 7 2700x
MOBO: Asus Rog Crosshair VII Hero(WI-FI)
RAM: 2x8GB G.Skill TridentZ 3200Mhz CL14 KIT F4-3200C14D-16GTZ
GPU: Asus Strix 1070

This build is going to run every day at some point, maybe 12-15h / 7.
3D modelling, rendering...etc.

I'm not fan of rgb lighting, but I must admit that i fell in love with it. Aura is perfect,and I would prefer it.I've checked in my country cooler master ml360r isn't going to come.

Which AIO will be the best for me?
I'm not happy with a stock cooler, at idle from 40c(the best scenario) to 65c..

Is there any way to OC 2700x at 4.1-4.2 and keep it stable for 12/7h at 50-55c at full load ?

No problems at all...You would not really get a gain moving to a 360mm AIO as the Ryzen is fairly good on heat output. Just a 240 or 280mm AIO will do the job very well and probably will allow for a 4.1 to 4.2GHz overclock without the temps getting anywhere near bad...Your scores are already good, way better than my 8700K at 4.9GHz!!!!

Here is an interseting artticle on XFR2 versus manual overclocking and with good cooling the Ryzen 2700X will hit 4 to 4.1GHz though with a manual overclock you can get a consitant 4.2GHz providing you have a good CPU..

Any decent 240mm or 280mm will do a great job on that CPU. As to the case, is it the non Mesh front version? If so, I would by the Mesh Front upgrade from Cooler Master as that makes a huge difference to temps..I should no as I did the same thing at it droped temps a huge ammount. I also did a mod on the top by removing the plastic see through cover and added some mesh there as well to help it exhaust better...

As to overclocking, the Ryzen 2700X with XFR 2 does a fantastic job of pushing the CPU, especially with good cooling, so the better the cooling the more XFR 2 can push the 2700X...Overclocking is not really worth it on the 2700X as in some cases even stock the 2700X can be faster...Just get some very good cooling for XFR to do its job.

It's non mesh version,if there is a little gain with 360mm i would go with it.I'm not completely sure but i didn't saw xfr 2 doing some job for now. Every time all cores are on 3912Mhz( Info provided by HWMonitor and CoreTemp ) , i haven't noticed 1 or 2 cores over 4GHz last two days.

I didn't know that i can buy H500P Mesh Front Panel (Gun Metal) for H500P Stock. Thanks for that info.

What is your suggestion for cooling the cpu?

Currently my Cinebench score is 1740-1780(real time)..

Taken from the article linked below:

'Chip quality naturally influences achievable clock rates as well. These effects are seen much more clearly with second-gen Ryzen CPUs supporting XFR2, since they have to be binned precisely. With as much cooling performance as we could muster, Ryzen 7 2700X still reaches almost 4.2 GHz. A more conventional thermal solution would result in a lower clock rate. However, with a good air cooler, it should be possible to sustain 4 GHz on all cores.'

On the H500P mesh front, yes it has been out for a while and it is at a good price... It will make a difference for sure on overall temps.

and my Mesh Front H500P...yes with the obligatory RGB bling!!! could not help myself..
