XPS 8930, best CPU cooler? #5
Hi, I have been reading all the forums in this website about the cpu coolers, but I am still unsure which cpu cooler fan is the best for cooling my cpu temp? I don't mind the noise much.
My cpu temp goes to the 80c 86c sometimes on high end games like rdr2 , far cry 5 for example when it spikes and it happens when I put the fan at almost full throttle with msi after burner. I know cpu can take these temps but these aren't temps I am really comfortable with when it comes to long term.
Is it the Noctua NH 9Li, the Arctic Freezer 11 LP, is it the Noctua NH-L9x65 or any other cooler?
What would be my best option if I only plan to replace the 92mm chassis fan with a 120mm noctua 3 pin fan too?
As for my pc here is some info on it:
32 gb ram, i7 9700, 850W psu gold(came with my dell pc), 2060 RTX super.
- Here is a pic of my pc that was rotated for some reason:

The Noctua NH-L12S a good option too? it is a 120mm but it seems high enough to not touch the Ram sticks or is it lower then I think?
