These single tower coolers are fine for i3/i5 or ryzen 3/5. For the 7/9 series, you really ought to get dual tower. The Peerless Assassin is like $40, and idCooling also makes a fantastic one for the same price, dual tower and 7 pipe (se-207-xt). Honestly, for the 7800x3d, I would strongly suggest the best air cooler made, the Noctua D15, but it's significantly more expensive and some cases don't have the room for it.

I still don't understand how Thermalright manage to make money out of their products, they are petty good at reasonable price, imagine Ngreedia suddenly making coolers and charge $30 more for every extra heatpipe lol, I'm glad they didn't manage to put their duty hands on ARM :V

Perhaps it costs $5 to make these products!

The last three coolers I've purchased have been Thermalright models. No complaints yet. This particular one is a no brainer if you are still using a stock cooler.

Hope your kidding ?#$@
I put a ID-COOLING SE-207-XT Slim on my I7-12700KF and am considering a twin tower 2 Fan model now. (the one I have is single fan). You should be looking at at least a DeepCool AK620 or Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 CPU Air Cooler, 7 Heat pipes CPU Cooler.

The ID-COOLING FROZN A620 Black Dual-Tower CPU Air Cooler is another option I'm considering

This model tested similarly to the Assassin Spirit but has a worse contact plate.

Legit question, how is the FROZN A620 better than the Thermalight Peerless Assassin SE120

Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE ARGB CPU Air Cooler, 6 Heat Pipes CPU Cooler, Dual 120mm TL-C12C-S PWM Fan, Aluminium Heatsink Cover, AGHP Technology, for AMD AM4/AM5 Intel 1700/115X/1200 https://a.co/d/hB9zMqx

Probably not allot better it's just a more modern design ...more like a Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 CPU Air Cooler, 6 Heat Pipes, Dual 120mm TL-C12B > https://www.amazon.com/Thermalrig...=1-12&th=1
or the DeepCool AK620

If you go by the few reviews of it it seems pretty good

The heatsink arrived well-packaged with its protections and all its accessories. I tested it with a Ryzen 7 5700X, reaching a maximum of 64°C (147°F) in Cinebench (multicore) with an ambient temperature of 30°C (86°F). With all its cores running at 4.5 GHz, the fans, operating on a balanced curve, reached a maximum of 1750 RPM with an acceptable noise level during the test.

Anyone who's looking at this model should instead get the RGB version for $17.59 (same link/same Amazon page). Paying an extra $0.60 for 20-30% performance gains on your CPU is a no brainer.
