I'm building a new PC and I'm really leaning towards getting the Arctic Freezer 36 for my 9800x3d. I like how it looks, and the performance tests I've seen seem promising. I'm open to suggestions for other air coolers, but I'm specifically looking for something all black that doesn't block the RAM slots.

The Arctic Freezer 36 is a bit on the smaller side for the 9800X3D. You might want to consider a larger dual tower cooler for better performance and quieter operation. The Thermalright Phantom Spirit has an all-black version and could be a great option!

What other coolers would you recommend? I’m having trouble finding Thermalright products in stock in my area. I was thinking about the Deepcool AK500.
