Looking to Get a Good Air Cooler

[ThePUNisher96]

 I had a Noctua NH-U12S that was likely defective as I could not get the mounting screws to thread properly even though I did use the AM4 mounting hardware and I'm pretty certain I installed all that correctly. I have since returned the Noctua cooler and am looking for a good air cooler since the R5 3600 stock cooler, is well, ...not good and so I was curious as to what air coolers people here could recommend.

 

Coolers I'm strongly considering:

 

• Be Quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4
• Scythe Fuma 2
• ARCTIC Freezer 34 Esports Duo

 

Any other recommendations would be welcome

Probably best bang for buck, though can't tell for sure.

any of those coolers are a good, another choice is to go with the nh-d15 but you said that you have had bad experience with noctua. Personally I would go with the Fuma 2 or the Arctic Freezer because they are compact and have really good cooling power

Where I live Gelid Phantom costs only 35€

That would be best bang for buck imo.

 

Performance like Fuma 2  - https://tweakers.net/productreview/216556/scythe-fuma-2.html

I think that can only be purchased in Europe

OK .. did not look at location. I'd go for Fuma 2.
