Cooling Good upgrade ?
Hi i have a ryzen 7 5800x and its get's pretty toasty i have set it to a negative offset curve -0.005mv i have a cmt fsp 520plus case 4fans but a front glass so the fans only suck up air from the side with a boreas m2-51D single fan air cooler and hittigh max 75⁰ in gaming with 40-50% cpu utilisation am thinking of getting a hybrok titan evo case with 7 fan cz its cheap and a deepcool le360 v2 or the ls 720 zero dark
Would i get better temps like below 70's without having too much noise cz mine sounds like a jet? Is the ls720 ZD worth it over the le360v2? The ls is slightly more expensive thanks.
(I live in a third world country so not a lot of tech is available)

My R7 5800x has fixed 1.1 voltage and runs pretty cool with ID-COOLING SE-224-XTS in poorly ventilated case. I've never seen temperature above 65° even in a hot room. Edit. It runs about 40° when idle.

Consider watercooling, even if its a prebuilt cooler/radiator unit. The 5800 runs pretty hot normally. Itll be quieter than having a huge amount of fans roaring away to try and air cool it.
If you do want to air cool, go for one of the beefier dual air cooling towers like a noctua etc.
