There are several different ways to keep your PC cool, but one of the most basic and affordable is using air. With a decent air cooler like the Cryorig R1 Ultimate on your CPU, you'll still get great performance and, in the right circumstances, room for overclocking.

Whatever your PC build, there's a great air cooler to go in it. Whether you need a low-profile choice like the Silverstone Argon AR-06 or want silence from something like the Be Quiet Dark Rock Pro 4, there's something out there for you.
