    Hello CR4ZEcs, and thank you for your submission to Gaming PC! If you are new please check out our rules over at the wiki [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/gamingpc/wiki/rules)!
    We have recently added the useful feature of Title Flair! You can set this manually by clicking Flair under your post once you have submitted your post, but if you missed it in the rules there is a much better way that will automatically flair your post!

    To do this simply add what your post is about in brackets before your title. For example for a Build Log you can type [Build Log] before your post so that it looks like this; [Build Log]My new awesome build!, and the bot will automatically set your flair to Build Log! This works for Build Log, Build Showcase, News, Hardware News, Hardware Release, Discussion, and Miscellaneous!

    Also remember that this is a place for discussing and sharing our love of Gaming Computers! This is NOT the place for help building or determining what parts you should buy, that is better suited for /r/buildapc. Troubleshooting questions should be directed to /r/techsupport. Thank you again!

    *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/gamingpc) if you have any questions or concerns.*

    Absolutely. PA is one of the best air coolers (price to performance ratio) and given that you’re going with AMD, you should be totally fine. I don’t know about the RAM clearance, though

    It’s alright, it’s not going to be termal throttling but it ain’t going to be a freezer either. PA 120mm it’s a pretty decent cooler, and the X3D CPU run quite cool because of the L3 Cache stack.

    Good air cooling performance are dependent of two things:
    * Where you live (if it’s a cold or tropical weather).
    * If your case and fans allows good airflow.

    With hot weather, having AC on when you’re playing is a must. But if your case doesn’t allow good airflow, it’s probably better stick to an AIO.
