Solution

I'll definitely take a look at that. What's the best type of cooler for my CPU? Air or liquid?

From my experience with both types, air coolers are generally more affordable and offer decent cooling performance, but they can be quite noisy. Liquid coolers, on the other hand, tend to be quieter and provide better cooling, but they're also usually more expensive.

That's good to know. What about TDP ratings? Should I be worried about that?

Yeah, you should definitely pay attention to the TDP rating when choosing a cooler for your Ryzen 3 Pro 2200GE. The CPU has a peak TDP of 48 watts, so you'll need a cooler that can handle at least that much heat dissipation.

Got it. Any recommendations on specific coolers I might like?

If you're looking for an air cooler, the Noctua NH-D15 is a great option. It's known for its excellent cooling performance and low noise levels. For liquid coolers, the CORSAIR iCUE H150i ELITE LCD Liquid CPU Cooler is worth considering. It offers good cooling performance and has some nice LED lighting as well.

Thanks for the suggestions! I think I'll take a closer look at both of those options.
