    Hey,

     

    I need a cooler for ryzen 9 3900x but the problem is there’s is only 88mm clearance in the case I have to use. I’ve seen some noctua low profile but idk if that will be enough. Water cooling is sadly not an option. I need it ASAP. Thanks for the answers^^

    what do you think of the big shuriken 3? i think its about 60-70mm

     

    shadowrock LP is also an option

     

    Noctua NH-L9x65

    Im with the mentaility of "IF IM NOT SURE IF ITS ENOUGH COOLING, GO OVERKILL"

    CPU             Ryzen 5 3600 (Formerly Ryzen 3 1200)

    GPU             : ASUS RX 580 Dual OC (Formerly ASUS GTX 1060 but it got corroded for some odd reasons)

    GPU COOOER      : ID Cooling Frostflow 120 VGA (Stock cooler overheats even when undervolted :()

    MOBO            : MSI B350m Bazooka

    MEMORY          Team Group Elite TUF DDR4 3600 Mhz CL 16 STORAGE         : Seagate Baracudda 1TB and Kingston SSD PSU             : Thermaltake Lite power 550W (Gonna change soon as i dont trust this) CASE            : Rakk Anyag Frost CPU COOLER      : ID-Cooling SE 207 CASE FANS       : Mix of ID cooling fans, Corsair fans and Rakk Ounos (planned change to ID Cooling) DISPLAY         : SpectrePro XTNS24 144hz Curved VA panel MOUSE           : Logitech G603 Lightspeed KEYBOARD        : Rakk Lam Ang

    Noctua lists the NH-L12s as compatible if you're not overclocking, and you'd have enough extra clearance to add a push/pull fan as well if you want.

    Yeah, I already had my eye on the noctua one. It looks the most beefy. If you know any better let me know
