Ryzen 5 3600 Cooling

I have, after a bit of research, discovered that, not to my surprise, the cpu cooler that comes with the 3600 is pretty bad. Therefore, I want to purchase a different air cooler for my cpu. The only issue is, I'm not sure which one to get. I've clicked countless review sites and videos for "top 5 coolers for the 3600" and such and every time they are different coolers. I would like to stay away from liquid cooling because they tend to be more expensive and I'm trying to keep it as cheap as possible. I want to find a decent air cooler that I can use to overclock the gpu a little bit (hopefully to 3.9GHz ish) and, simultaneously, keep it relatively cool at a fair price. I've been looking around and can't seem to find such a cooler or maybe I've just been looking in the wrong places. If anyone has an ideas or any that they have personally used that they can recommend that would be a-m-a-z-i-n-g!

 

Thanks!!!

the stock cooler is decent, you just dont have good enough airflow. get artic freezer 34 duo.

I Use my knowledge as business owner and self taught technician aswell as an AI to help people. AI might be controversial but it actually works pretty well 90% of the time.

I have heard of that one a couple times being pretty good and yeah, that's what I assumed for the stock cooler. The 34 duo looks pretty good and has a good price tag on it. Do you think it'll do the trick?

Alright I'll take your word for it lol. All jokes aside though I do think it'll be good I have seen it mentioned a few times for being a good cpu cooler and it looks really good. Thanks for the suggestion my guy!

If you're trying to keep price down, the Gammaxx 400 or SE-224 XT are hard to beat:

I like the looks of the SE-224 XT. Do you know if this cooler would be good enough to overclock the 3600 a little bit as well?

Yes, it wouldn't make sense to recommend it otherwise. You can see how the performance stacks up to other coolers here:
