I just built a new PC with the same CPU and used a Scythe air cooler, specifically this one. They are relatively inexpensive but good quality. Running at 99.9% usage while compiling software packages, it topped out 80°C.

~80C is thermal throttling territory for amd cpus, FYI.

No it’s not. 95c is the target temperature on anything 7000 series and newer. Google says the 5700x throttles at 90.
