Gigabyte X570 AORUS XTREME (AMD AM4) DDR4 X570 Chipset EATX Motherboard | OcUK (overclockers.co.uk)

I bought this board from the members market and now I need a cooler for it. I am currently using an NH-D15S on my current motherboard and I tried to use it on the Xtreme but I found that the cooler blocks the first PCI-E slot completely so I need a smaller cooler but am unsure of one that would be adequate for my needs. Right now I run my two fans on my D15s at about 600rpm on my 5900X and it is more than enough cooling while keeping my system very quiet ( I have hypersensitivity to sound ) and of course whatever I replace it with I would like to keep it at roughly the same noise level.

Any suggestions for a cooler that would not cover the PCI-E slot while being quiet would be ideal and as for AIO's I have tried them but the buzzing from the pumps is too distracting for me. Anyway hope you are all keeping safe!
 
Thermalright's new Frost Commander 140 (in silver, black or white) is 62mm center CPU to side of fins toward PCIe sockets (NH-D15S is 67mm) is actually a little better than D15/D15S and usually much lower priced. Problem is finding them. :(
