The Peerless Assassin SE 120 is a solid option

How can a cooler not fit a board for the same socket ?? 

Only restrictions are RAM and case clearance

idk it doesn’t fit I have the same cooler at home and it doesn’t fit somehow, my case is a atx one since my old mobo was atx and this one is matx, the screw is like 4 cm from touching

You're saying the screw it too short?  What do you have as a backplate on the motherboard?

The screw is not to short it’s the cooler plate that is to small it’s like 3-4 cm to short

What case do you use? How is your setup in terms of airflow within the case? What's your motherboard? Do you overclock ? What's your budget? : ) : )

 

BC even a budget - cheapo tower cooler with 3-4 heatpipes vastly outperforms the stock "wraith stealth" cooler with a significant margin. You need not to spend a fortune on cooler. Pretty much anything aftermarket will be an improvement over the stock.

 

But how do you expect to receive any meaningful recommendation without providing at least basic information on the intended use?   I don't want to sound like a jerk, but those simple insights (case, motherboard, OC or not, budget allocated to the task) are important : )

I got a gigabite a520 ds3h, I don’t overclock and I would say my budget is like maybe 40-60$ on a cooler.

never heard of something like this, seems highly improbable, any photos we can see? 

[podkall]

Unless you plan to do a very intensive CPU tasks constantly on your PC, a stock cooler or cheap coolers like the ones being recommended are more than enough.

I see I don’t like the temps I’m getting on the stock cooler that’s why I wanna switch

The noctua u12s costs 100$ here in sweden but I saw a u12s redux for 60$ what’s the difference between redux and non redux?

what kind of temps are you getting?

[freeagent]

Just get a cheap single tower Thermalright if the PA120 doesnt fit. 25 bucks here for one.

Oh I see so the difference is just the material Ig?

yeah, i even think the redux looks much better.  but performance is really exactly the same.

 

i buy everything from noctua,  i don't find them expensive at all, i just never buy the expensive and imo ugly beige ones lol ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

[Mark Kaine]

if you can try importing... i got this for 60 euros from some Belgian shop... (not sure about import fees tho, in eu there are none...)

 

its so beautiful! : D

yeah... looks good...

 

you see it has a different fan also, but this is a very good fan as well, i have exactly those as case fans, and they still have the same performance than the more expensive ones. plus it really looks awesome with the silver from the cooler imo...

that's not the coldest CPU but not the hottest either, the very highest limit the CPU can go on is 95°C

 

not to mention if the CPU ever starts getting close to that number, it has multiple safety features

 

one of the early features would only start slowing down the CPU at 80 or higher temps

they use slightly cheaper material but claim to manufacture to same high Noctua quality their customers expect
