[SOLVED] Value cooling suggestions for Ryzen 3 3300X

[travisbundo]

Looking for value cooling suggestions for Ryzen 3 3300X. Looking for the best bang for my buck. My last build I went with a suggested value fan for $20ish and it has performed and done its job for years. Looking for something similar.

The stock AMD Wraith Stealth cooler....? Hard to beat free.

What country are you shopping in?
Max budget is $20 again?

This is my current cooler. Maybe someone can confirm, but I'm assuming this won't be compatible with my new CPU?

AM4 is not listed in the socket compatibility list. You might be able to get a different bracket from CoolerMaster.

Shopping in USA. Budget can move a bit. Under 40-50ish. Right now I am looking at the Coolermaster 212 Evo, but from what I've seen I'll need to buy an adapter to fit a B550 motherboard.

I looked into this further and this is the adapter needed for the newer Cooler Master 212s, but unsure if it will work for what I currently have.

I used a Hyper 212 with my 2700X and it performed commendably for the cost. I think it is a good way to go again.

Hyper 212 Black or Hyper 212 Black RGB are AM4 compatible.
