NZXT h700, why?

It says this cases supports up to a 360mm radiator at the top meaning it should have mounting points for 240mm and 280mm radiators, you should look at coolers that have have those sizes rather than limit yourself to a single 120mm AIO.

The H60 performance is that of a mid range air cooler, it wouldn't be able to handle overclocking on that chip.

It's decent, but not a really great overclocker.

I need a good cooler for my Ryzen 5 2600x :

budget 75 is dollars

case is nxzt h700

 

requirement:

quiet, good for overclocking all core to 4.2 GHz( don’t care about what type it is, water or air is fine)

It performs similarly to the H60 2018 but is much quieter. Either should be enough if you get a decent chip.

A Justice or Mugen 5 Rev. B would be better:

That's a bit of as waste of money especially since the iPPC is noisier at the same rpm and doesn't improve performance more than getting a better cooler in the first place.

Case doesn't seem to have the best airflow

 

probably grab a 240mm AIO, or does the case fit 280 AIOs?

I'd maybe suggest saving up for a 360mm AIO, case fits it, should be worth it given the maybe lower airflow compared to other cases
