What ram are you using? Also, why an nh-u9s? That's a 92mm fan cooling a Ryzen 9... I would go with an nh-u12(120mm fan on tower)  though with the larger cooler you will need to worry about ram clearance so low profile ram is a must for those. The case supports 160mm cpu coolers, and nh-u12 is 158mm so its a tight fit. May even go with an AIO if you don't want to worry about clearance then a 280mm AIO will be great. The case fits a 280mm AIO on the top.

with rgb like this?

https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categories/Products/Memory/Vengeance-PRO-RGB-Black/p/CMW16GX4M2C3200C16

 

Or just regular stuff like this?

https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Vengeance-3200MHz-Desktop-Memory/dp/B0143UM4TC/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2JS37VBYVG54E&keywords=corsair%2Bvengeance&qid=1653087099&sprefix=corsair%2Bvengean%2Caps%2C145&sr=8-1&th=1

 

If its the none RGB either air or AIO is fine but for the RGB ram it won't fit with a nh-u12s cause the RGB ram is 44mm tall and nh-u12s only fits 40mm height ram. Sounds like an AIO might be a good option for compatibility as much as everyone hates AIO's sometimes they are just easier for compatibility but has some reliability issues after 5 years or so

This was my 5900X build (slightly modified to compensate for a couple coulda-woulda-shouldas I caught later)

I don't badmouth others' input, I'd appreciate others not badmouthing mine. *** More below ***

 

MODERATE TO SEVERE AUTISTIC, COMPLICATED WITH COVID FOG

 

Due to the above, I've likely revised posts <30 min old, and do not think as you do.

THINK BEFORE YOU REPLY!

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

He would need windows 11 since it is optimized for 12700
