Hey, I've been looking around for an air cooler for my R5 5600G in a Lian Li Q58 build and landed on the ID Cooling IS-60 EVO as it seems to be one of the only decent budget coolers available where I am (from my research, a close second seems to be the IS-50X V2). However, from what I understand, I should be getting a backplate mounting kit as this is especially a problem on the amd mounting system.
My problem is that I can't find any cheap backplate mounting kit - all the recommended one's are either not available or are being imported, leading to high shipping costs.
Is there a way to use the stock AMD Wraith Stealth backplate? Would it be fine to run this cooler without a backplate?
If not, what cooler would you recommend?
(Before you recommend them, the Scythe Big Shuriken 3 is not available and the Alpenfohn Black Ridge has been out of stock for months, but I think my RAM is too tall anyway)
Thanks
