Why no air cooler for 9700x?

Was weighing my options again on the build I was going to go with the 9600x as it runs cooler and seemed fine for my budget over the 7800x3d, but was also considering the 9700x as I want to do video editing and music production on it as well as gaming, so I figured it'd be worth looking at for my case.

While looking at it on the custom build option though, I noticed that when I switched from the 9600x to the 9700x, there isn't any air cooler options for it at all. I just wanted to ask why it isn't an option considering it has identical wattage to the 9600x and runs cooler than the 7800x3d which IS able to be paired with an air cooler?

Opinions before I purchase?

Been researching for a while now and have decided on this build and I THINK I'm set on it, but wanted some input to see if there's any glaring issues I'm not noticing or any part/parts I should change.

I'm coming from having a Nitro V15 laptop as my main gaming pc, so I want something substantially better while keeping the price around $1900 (which factors the sales tax I unfortunately have to pay) as I still need to buy a monitor and keyboard.

I'd be using the pc for the following:

  • High end 1440p gaming - (Fighting games, Single player AAA games, the works)
  • 4k gaming down the line if I end up getting a 4k monitor
  • YouTube video editing
  • Music production
  • Possibly streaming (YouTube/Twitch and all that)

So pretty much an everything machine. I just want to make sure I'm getting a good bang for my buck by keeping it under/around $1900 but still being waaay better than what I have now.

So please, any opinions/input on the build is greatly appreciated! I wanna make sure I get a good pc for my budget since this would be my first desktop pc I own

(Also, expedited build time would get me my pc much faster than standard right? Think I understand from the description, but if you know that'd be nice to get confirmation on too)
