Air Cooling Upgrade

[music4mybumhole]

I'm finding my system pretty noisy under load gaming at 1440p.
I have a Bitfenix prodigy M case and have one Corsair ML120 on the bottom as an intake and one on the rear as an exhaust. Ryzen 2600x with stock AMD Stealth cooler.
I'm planning an upgrade to 3600 or 3600x shortly and was thinking of swapping the Stealth cooler for a BeQuiet Pure Rock 2 and adding 2x Noctua nf-s12b redux-1200 PWM at the top as intake fans too.

Any thoughts on if this would bring down temps / noise noticeably or any other suggestions?

TIA

the stock cooler and the ML120's are not quiet. looking at the case I would becareful about how you set the fans up. you could be sucking the cooler air out with the exhaust fan spending on the airflow the fans are producing.
a 120 AIO would be a good cooler in that case. How are your GPU temps?

wouldn't waste money on noctua fans.

That BeQuiet is little brand overpriced.
Arctic Freezer 34 is out of stock, but Alpenfohn has actually little heavier cooler still for less.

And with those mediocre stamped and highish impedance meshes would forget that NF-S12 with its weak pressure capability.
Something like Arctic P12 would be good choise for that use.

For the cooler, look at the Dark Rock Pro or the Noctua DH series.
