Pros

  • https://pcpartpicker.com/product/KhgZxr/thermalright-royal-pretor-130-black-8188-cfm-cpu-cooler-royal-pretor-130-black
  • Thermalright Royal Pretor 130 $50

Cons

  • Check the mounting on your cooler. Make sure you didn't leave the plastic on it. Make sure it's actually contacting properly. This isn't a BIOS issue.
  • I’ve narrowed it down to the Royal Pretor 130, Frost Tower 140, and PA140. From what I’ve seen, all three are newer offerings from TR and should handle the 5800X3D fine, so my main concern is noise.
  • What could the problem be? What should i do? Should i upgrade the cooler, i can only fit a 240mm aio if so?
