Any recommendation for budget AMD cooler?

[Geffen]

Just got myself a second hand Ryzen 2600X and wondered if there any budget CPU cooler (<£30) that are a step up from the stock cooler.

Already £25 gives good normal size tower cooler and £30 little beefier.
Arctic Freezer 34 CPU Cooler - 120mm= £24.95
Alpenfohn Brocken ECO Advanced CPU Cooler - 120 mm= £29.99

There's also the 212 at the £30 price point - tried, tested and loved by many for more than a decade:
Cooler Master Hyper 212

My basket at Overclockers UK:

• 1 x be quiet! Pure Rock Slim 2 CPU Cooler - 92mm= £22.99

Total: £25.73 (includes shipping: £2.74)​

I would get cooler with 120mm fanned 4x 6mm heatpipe coolers rather than 92mm fanned 3x 6mm heatpipe coolers as they have about 33% more cooling ability. Probably lowest priced half-decent is Arctic Freezer 34 linked below for £19.99

Unless you are limited on space always go for 120mm over 92mm. If you have the space use it.

Get the artic freezer 34 while it is on special imo.
I personally not used an arctic freezer cooler for 20 years but i bet if I dug it out of the garage it would still work just fine. Built a pc with it for my wife and at the time everyone was amazed that it was silent whilst there carpy Dell/Apple etc were not.
