Please Need help

I dont have any plans to overclock and will run on the stock cooler

If not what should I go for it? under 180$ ( already purchased it but I might replace it )

Aftermarket cooler + B550 board. That's what I would get.

Stock cooler on a 3900X is not a great idea :p It will work but if you see 90C and the CPU thermal throttle you will know why and the stock cooler sounds like a jet engine at max speed.



Thanks mate , I will replace it with ASUS B550-F ROG Strix Gaming AMD AM4 ATX Motherboard today , just bought it from micro center :)

The 3900x will run fine on that Asus ROG Strix B450-F as long as you have decent airflow in your case AND the room temperature isn't too hot.
If I was you, I would look at a 3700x which will run even cooler/better.
I ran a 3700x on my Asus B450-F for a month while I was waiting for my X470-F to arrive and it ran Very well on the B450-F.
