My motherboard actually came with two PWM fan headers (ASRock Fatality B450 ITX). I run two 120mm GPU fans from one header and three 40mm for the CPU from the second header using 'Y' splitters.

The problem with my build is the 2600x is a 95W TDP part so the L9 wouldn't work as it needs good ventilation in the case to keep the temps under control. The 2600x even in stock frquencies, is pushing right up against the max TDP of the L9.

Thank you! I am loving the performance in that small a case :)

Built this to upgrade from a Sager laptop (I7-4700MQ, GTX770M). Main use cases are Lightroom and light gaming (mainly Fallout 4, Factorio etc.). Now looking for a better cooler than the spire that still fits in the Node 202. Parts list: PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant...

ASRock B450 ITX supports DP 1.2 https://www.asrock.com/MB/AMD/Fatal1ty%20B450%20Gaming-ITXac/index.asp#Specification I have this board (albeit with a GPU) and it works great paired with the 2600x.

Correct. The 2600X comes with the non LED version of the Wraith Spire.

This is my config and I was looking for any recommendations on which cooler to go with. I do not plan to overclock at all. So everything below will be run at stock. 1. Stock spire wraith with the shroud removed 2. Noctua NH-L9a-AM4 3. C7 PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant...
