Best cooler for my CPU

Hi. I need some advice on how to cool my Ryzen 5 3600X.

 

I am a sucker for low temps so I am going to under volt it and I am looking for a good cooler to accompany it.

 

Should I go for:

-Stock cooler

-Kraken m22

-Cooler Master g100m

How about a nice air cooler like a noctua, bequiet or scythe?

One question - Why? Whats the point of having super low temps in a mid range CPU under a cooler that costs 2/3 of that CPU?

More like 1/3 for me.

 

I want the CPU to last as long as possible and lower temps help with that

Not really. If you keep your CPU within reasonable temp, it will become obsolete sooner than dead.

That sure ain't low profile xD

I wouldn't recommend anything lower profile than this over the stock cooler

Maybe you are right. But on the other hand if I get some other cooler my PC on top of running lower temps may look better with stock cooler replaced

If you're about looks and need something low profile then get Wraith Prism cooler. Its fairly low profile and it looks very good imo.

Will the performance be better that g100m thou ? The Price difference is very low

No idea. I can't find wattage reference for G100M. But judging by the size, they're about the same.
