Asked by

I'm trying to decide on a CPU cooler for my build, and I have a few options I'm looking at. Here are the coolers I'm considering:
1. Deepcool AK620 for INR 5400 ($59.85)
2. Deepcool AG620 for INR 2900 ($32.14)
3. Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 SE for INR 6699 ($74.25)
4. Thermalright Peerless Assassin for INR 4374 ($48.48)
Can you help me find the best choice among these? Just for reference, here are the components I'm working with:
- Ryzen 7 9700X
- Zotac Amp Infinix Ultra RTX 5070 Ti 16GB
- MSI MAG B850 Tomahawk Max WiFi
- Corsair RM850X 850W PSU 80+ Gold
- Lian Li Lancool 216 cabinet
- Samsung 990 Pro 1TB SSD
- Kingston Fury DDR5 6000MHz CL30 RAM (16x2).

The Deepcool AG620 at just $32 is a solid choice for your Ryzen 9700X. It's definitely the best value here. I'd say the Peerless Assassin at $48 is a reasonable backup option, but you won't need the more expensive coolers for this setup. They’re overkill for your build and won’t really add any benefit.
