I'm currently using an Intel i7 13700F and I'm on the hunt for a good air cooler. I've been looking at the Noctua NH-D15, but I'm a bit worried about RAM clearance since my RAM is 34.9mm tall and installed in the first and third slots. Plus, I can't go over 170 mm in cooler height. Any recommendations?

For best value, consider Thermalright or ID Cooling. They offer solid air coolers that won’t break the bank.
Personally, I go for the Dark Rock Pro. I just trust air coolers over water ones; they have a much lower chance of failing and causing problems for your PC.
The Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120mm SE has been a go-to for years! It provides great cooling performance, runs quietly, and is well-priced.
Check out some comparisons online. You can verify the clearance of the cooler with your RAM height too. Just make sure to double-check that!
