A user needs a new gaming computer which can be both fast and quiet. Which of the following should MOST likely be installed to meet the user's requirements?

Liquid cooling systems use coolant circulated through a water block on the CPU/GPU and dissipated through a radiator, which can handle high heat loads generated by gaming hardware. The pump and larger, slower-spinning radiator fans produce far less noise than the high-RPM fans required by comparable air coolers. This combination delivers the thermal capacity needed for performance gaming while keeping acoustic levels low.

Passive cooling uses no fans at all and relies solely on heatsink convection, which cannot dissipate the heat generated by a high-performance gaming CPU or GPU.

Thermal paste improves thermal conductivity between a CPU and its cooler but is a material, not a cooling solution, and does not address noise.

Low RPM fans reduce noise but move less air, making them insufficient to cool a high-performance gaming system under load.
