Hi,

After I do my research, the N15 is the most recommended best Ait cooler, but I hate it because it blocks the m.2 slot and all the RAM.
I know I won't need to swap m.2 or RAM every few months or years, but I just don't like it. Is a scythe Fuma 2 enough to cool a 3950x? or any best small Ait cooler alternatives? Thank you

I have Fuma 2 on 5900X (I guess similar temperatures on 3950X) and I'm very happy with it.
Yes, Djoza (above) made a good advice.. watch the review. Just keep in mind, that Steve (at Gamers Nexus) is kinda nitpicking reviewer when it's about temperatures :)
Now, I say, Fuma 2 is enough for your CPU, but... as you probably know, it also depends on the rest of your system (PC case airflow).
