The size of a liquid cooler's radiator — larger radiators dissipate more heat, but need a case with matching mount support.
The fan(s) that push air through the cooler — larger and more fans generally move more air at the same noise level.

Compatibility
CPU coolers ship with mounting hardware for specific sockets. Most modern coolers support current sockets, but it's worth confirming for older or newer platforms.
Air coolers have a height limit set by the case's side panel. Liquid coolers need a radiator mount of the matching size (240mm, 280mm, 360mm) in the case.
