Whenever I see thermalright my brain auto changes it to thermaltake and there's a big difference, thermaltakes stuff in general kinda sucks and thermalright is generally pretty good

Talking about something that would last, it should be around AM5. If you go with  intel's LGA 1700, at best you can only go up to 14th gen, which is already more or less comparable to ryzen 7000 series. But if you go with AM5, your next upgrade can just be getting a new CPU and and you keep everything else. From 7000 series, you might bet  at least up to the 9000 series, minimum.
