Basically just the CPU fan, case, and PSU (if you’re lucky). If someone can figure out how to get Doom running on just those 3 things, young people will be able to ascend.

    It cost me nothing because I did not need to buy a new one each time.

    So what should a cooler in this category should have Costed in 2015 for you?

    You keep rambling about premium but do not define what that means for you.

      When I built a PC in 2015, I just used the cooler that came bundled with the processor and it worked just fine.

        As intended. But a bigger cooler really hits the spot. Try pick up a used one from eBay. Like people here mentioned, other brands have cought up.

        The side effect in 2015 was, that I never needed a bigger case for new graphics cards because the fan was already so big.
