I haven't been paying attention to new hardware releases during the last 6 months or so. I was just wondering what the best of the best coolers out for air cooling are right now? Last I knew it was NH-D15, Cryorig R1 Ultimate, and Dark Rock Pro 3. Any beasts that have been released in my absence?

That's it really. Raijintek have released a dual tower cheaper competitior, but it's still not quite as good as the top three, but it's a great cheaper option.

CPUs don't need coolers anymore, the latest intel CPUs have a 18W TDP.

And the latest amd have a 300w tdp and need a quad tower air cooler, or custom loop with at least quad 120 rad.

Other than that, no new coolers
