ARCTIC Alpine 17

An air cooler standing 160mm tall specced for 180W. That rating covers upper-midrange CPUs at stock and mild overclocks. Noise is specced at 30 dBA; socket support includes AM5, AM4, LGA1700. At 160mm tall, verify case cooler clearance — mid-towers typically allow 160–170mm.

Its $9.99 price tag places it squarely in budget territory.
