Hi forum i have a arctic freezer 11 lp as a CPU cooler and I want to know what CPU cooler will you recommend. My prefrence for a CPU cooler is, does it have low noise when it cool your CPU and is it good, for CPU intense games. Like Overwatch team fortress 2 etc.

Depends if you want to go air cooling or water cooling. When it comes to air cooling the NH-d15 is basically ( or maybe tied for) the best.

CPU, case, RAM? There must be a reason why your current cooler is low-profile?

The reason my cpu cooler is low profile is so it fit into my AeroCool SI-5101 Advance midtower case

There are some coolers that are under 150mm. For example Cryorig M9 Plus, Noctua U9B, be Quiet! Dark Rock Slim. And the top-flow coolers from same trio.

acrtic freezer 33/ arctic freezer  esport 33 or scyth mugen 5 rev b would be my go to. 

 

however given your CPU is a 65w I wouldn't expect any performance gains. just lower temps and noice. with that in mind I would save the money for a better upgrade to a new motherboard and CPU.
