I was going to get a Phantom Spirit/Peerless Assassin 120, but they appear to out of stock, other than some random seller on the rainforest!
Can get the Phantom Spirit Evo for £65, seems a bit overpriced (not from OCUK)

any other recommendations?
cheers

I would recommend Noctua, as they made adapter brackets and sent one out to me, so it's extended the life of my tower from the Intel Xeon 5670 to AM5, so in effect I could be using it for ~20 years.

With another brand they haven't made kits so those perfectly good £50 towers are useless. :(
 
A £20 cooler is fine as mentioned above, if it has to be in stock at Overclockers theese are good for the money.



 
I'll get this tomorrow, much cheaper than Noctua... I can get the Phantom Spirit but for £65 vs £50 for the Assassin!

shame it's white, rest of my build is black.

oh, do you still get Haribo when collecting from the store :cry:

I figured I would get Noctua because Linus from LTT always raves about them. But I bought a Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120SE ARGB because not only is it dirt cheap, but every review I saw was fantastic. Think it was about 32 quid

I have a D15, but only because I've had it since my 8700k days and I don't think the Assassin/Spirit existed then.

I've got a Phantom Spirit in the living room setup, and it's amazing for the £30 I paid for it. No reason to buy Noctua now really.
