Question Looking for advice regarding CPU coolers

[UserNo54]

I’m planning on replacing my old motherboard and CPU. The motherboard that I’m looking at is an MSI MPG B550, and the CPU is a Ryzen 5 5600.

Since I’m replacing the mobo and CPU, I was thinking about getting a better CPU cooler as well, but I’m a little conflicted on which one I should choose.

I live in a third-world country with fairly high import rates, so PC components can be quite expensive, but I managed to find a couple of CPU coolers at a reasonably accessible price. Those are:

• Scythe Mugen 6, 120mm;
• Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 Mini;
• DeepCool LE500 240;
• MSI Mag Coreliquid M240.

Does anyone have any advice on which one I should choose? I believe most, if not all, of the previously mentioned coolers should be able to cool a Ryzen 5 5600, but I was wondering which one would be able to do that more eficiently/silently.

Either of the first two air coolers would be ok.

Small aio coolers are no more effective and will have a limited life span.

For a 5600, use the stock cooler. They aren't bad and particularly if you have to pay a lot for something "better".

I also agree with @geofelt as both of those two coolers are considered great value to performance. The other consideration here would be as to whether the system is in a climate controlled space and if not what matter of ambient temperatures are common at your locale.
