I'm wondering if the Thermalright Phantom Spirit CPU cooler is compatible with the 9800x3D processor. I noticed it's priced quite low on Amazon at $40, which raised some questions about its performance. Any insights?

Thanks, everyone! This really helps me out. I was dreading the thought of removing my Noctua cooler from the old build just to rebuild it on the new motherboard and case.
Yep, I’ve got this cooler on my 9800x3D in a compact NR200 case, and it performs pretty well! I did swap out the stock fans for Arctic P12s and adjusted the fan speeds. Setting the PBO curve optimizer to -15 also helped keep my temperatures nice and low.
Definitely, you can use the Thermalright Phantom Spirit with the 9800x3D. It’s capable of handling up to 234W, so it should keep your CPU cool without any issues.
Short answer: Absolutely yes! It works great with the 9800x3D. Don’t worry about it being cheap; it's a solid cooler.
I'm using this cooler right now, and it’s been functioning just fine!
