what is a good cooler for a ryzen 7 2700x?
its been a while since ive upgraded, i still have a amd fx 8350 and its starting to show its age. right now i have a Cooler Master Hyper D92 in my Case Sentey GS-6011 ATX Mid Tower Case. so i decided to finally start thinking about upgrading my cpu and i landed on the 2700x as a good replacement, but im not sure what a good cooler for it would be. my main issue is that i don't know what cooler could cool the cpu enough. i want to keep it under $100, and i prefer a fan (and i doubt any solid am4 water coolers can be found under 100).

do you guys have any suggestions?

I like as silent as possible now. There was a time i did not care and my pc sounded like a hoover, but now i do. Carefully worked out fan setup is the key. 10+ fans is ludicrous and probably only because they are RGB and you like the fairground ride look like Escorve does, which i don't. I have 4 fans in my case and my temps are fine, neither cpu or gpu over 65c. Also positive case pressure is the best way, or you just end up with your case being a dusty mess.

might be in your case but cant be geenralized liek that. There many other cases. Like goign SLi or having a HEDT/TR plattform with a abse TDp of 165W. So you come at around 250-300W TDP alone for the CPU when you do hardcore overclockign like I do.
Then you have a 360mm rads or the good 280mm rads which slight outperform twin tower cooled like the NH-D15 or the Dark Rock Pro 4.
Also more fans can give betetr temps without raising the noice because you can run them at lower RPm while having the same air movement.
Also negative pressure is better temps wise while I use a double layer of dust filters which keeps my PC dust free for a long time.

Also if you do harcore overclocking (5.5GHz on my 7700K and 5.1GHz on the 7820X) then you cant have enough cooling. My 7700K with 5.5GHz @1.465V still was below 70C in P95 FTT 1344K.

It's called airflow, and you can run fans at a lower RPM when you have more of them.
If you're a hardcore overclocker, you should run a custom loop, aio's are a cheap way to watercool.
A lot of hardcore overclockers will use a custom loop, so they can cool their overclocked GPU and CPU at the same time, and look fantastic doing it.
If you are going to spend a few thousand dollars and build a rig to fap over, why would you not put a custom loop in it? better temps, you can add extra blocks at will, including full cover gpu blocks(which also have RGB now) but i suppose the easy option is a aio.
I think my first custom loop was in about 2003 or 4.

As an example, of how your case would look with proper cooling.

1) I don't need a custom loop, and a good custom loop for CPU+GPU would add ~30% to the total cost as it is in my country. Compounding that with the fact that half of this year has not been good work hours.

2) I don't do extreme overclocking, so a custom loop is pointless. An AIO is fine, and still better than an NH-D15 or Dark Rock Pro 4 in everything except price. (Noise isn't an issue because running rush-pull means you can run your fans at a lower RPM and get the same result, and the cooler I'm using on an 9900K @ 5 GHz can easily make a 10 degree difference versus the NH-D15.)

3) Extreme OC with Ryzen would require LN2.

custom llop cost at least 4 times as much, takes constant maintance and I change my Hardware way to foten for that. Settign up a custom loop for processors that might not even stay for 2 month befor getting changed for sampling is way to impractically.
