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^^

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
