"I don't really care about RGB"
I am running the Alphacool Eisbaer 360 CPU Water Cooler - Black 4250197112864 and Eisbaer 240 CPU Water Cooler - Black
But I recommend 360 over the 240 on the i9 9900k
https://www.performance-pcs.com/ has the best Price ATM I ordered one today.
I run them in a Push/Pull setup.

Corsair just released a new aio with updated hardware and made by coolit instead asetek. I'm looking at the 280mm, but I already have EVGA clc 280. The updated cpu block got me all hyped up. Do you think it will produce the same temp? I don't really care about RGB, but I'm willing to bite the bullet if it will give me better temp for my i9 9900k than my EVGA clc 280.

Check out OC3DTV video review below or the article on Corsair new H100i/115i Platinum Hydro AIO coolers.
 

 
Corsair has put a lot work into it's new ICUE software. I don't know of any competitor that can match them.
 
Is a few degrees cooler worth the money, that is for you to decide.

I do not think you will have any issues with the Ram with this Cooler Heat Sink/Pump.

I have Both models and the performance has caused me to the put Corsair out the door, and I am not looking back.
No Software to Install and Manage the Pump, connect it to the CPU Header on the MB at 100% and you are done.
The Pump Noise Level is Zero.

No Corsair Cooler can out Perform the above 360, based on my own testing.

No Corsair Cooler can match the Perform the above 240, based on my own testing.
 
Need longer Tubing Eisbaer has them Corsair Closed Loop and you cannot extend the Tubing.
You need Two Kits Per Cooler.

Those are pretty good temp! Have you tried to comparing this with EVGA clc 280?

 I installed the 240 until my 360 comes in. I used Only MX-4 and I have NOT Delied the CPU.
Temps are in the upper 50C and Mid 60C running Prime95 for 2 hours with HT Disabled @ 4400MHz AVX2=2 AVX3=3
The Max Temp on two Cores 72 and the rest Core Max I am seeing 68
I guess the 240 is doing a better job than I thought it would on the Core i9 7940X Processor

I never saw uglier AIO than Alphacool with that big cube with pump.
What can I say about new H1xx Platinum, non Platinum + RGB Fans = Platinum.
 
Definitely I would choose non Platinum version for sure.
RGB destroy PC Look, so amazing and expensive RIGs I can't see what is inside and what people use from hardware because stupid RGB on every part. Completely camouflage expensive investment and give some cheap Asian look and I hate literary RGB. Every RIG with him I only continue further not pay attention on details at all.
 
Forgot on AIO and build small loop for self, 280mm radiator, attach pump/res combo to him.
You have really small combinations with DDC Pump but better D5 and you will have 10-15C better temps than best 280mm AIO.
But I never like water only on CPU, GPU is very important as well, maybe even more because these good AIO systems for CPU.
It's very easy, you need one 280mm radiator, mounting kit and pump/res combo and you got one unit for custom loop, capable to separate.
 
Example Heatkiller series is expandable, one Heatkiller Tube could be used as separate reservoir, combo with D5 or combo with DDC.
And you could buy additional parts, D5 Bottom, DDC Bottom, Multi Port. Opening of reservoir is amazing, literary not thread at all and glass. Heatkiller version 100 is very small, but smallest is Swiftech Maelstrom X50. He is cue. 
280mm radiator Black Ice Nemesis GTS is 60-65$
Pump Combo about 120-130$
6x fittings 35$ and tubes few dollars, you probably have some fans in house, if not you 2x140mm is around 40$.

I have the H115i Corsair Platinum cooler installed. With FULL CPU load the CPU temp on my Threadripper is 60 degrees C. The coordinated RGB with Corsair iCUE rocks.

It is really cool to have matching RGB lighting. My biggest problem is so much stuff comes with RGB but the software makes it impossible to really match up to make work together and out of sync it looks horrible to me.

As we have said above we do not care for RGB
Ugly Is Foxy.
Ugly Is Cooler.
Ugly Is Performance.
Ugly Is Set and Forget.
Ugly Is Expandable.
