I feel like the Peerless Assassin is cheap enough and performant enough that it makes the 'Best Value' and 'Best Ultra Budget' categories irrelevant.

Yeah.

I've helped people assemble computers many times since it was released, and it's only really in really tight spaces where'd I'd recommend others if a non-stock cooler is being consider (outside of visual design requests). Availability is a factor of course, but I haven't come across a situation where at least one of the PA120 (SE or not) coolers wasn't available pretty easily online.
