Hello fellow people of the linus tech tips forum, I have been shopping around for upgrades for my pc and I am looking for a new cooler I originally wanted to put in a AIO system but my case wouldnt support one (my case is some hp one) so ive decided to go for an air cooler but I dont know what to choose. I want something that is silent and so I am able to install it easily as I have quite large hands. Hope I get some good suggestions from some of you :)

Noctua's NH-D15 is a premium one (around $80) that beats some AIO's, but the Cooler Master 212 Evo is a great one at around $30.

My arsenal: i7-9700k Gaming Rig, an iPhone, and Stupidity.

Noctua's NH-D15 is the king of Air Cooling which costs nearly as AIO, But it's that worth!!

CoolerMaster Hyper 212 Evo is king of cheap and best cooler out there.
