AMD Ryzen reference coolers leaked (and confirmed)

I am still surprised that Intel did not release an updated cooler after the Wraith cooler was released, maybe this will be more of an incentive.

I doubt it, 'cool' coolers isn't really part of their sales strategy, they sell product consistently in a high volume with reasonably high profit per unit. Why put r&d money into a niche that's going to have no real trickle down effect on their product sku

Not sure what crap you use, but my 4460 goes to max 60ish when gaming (that's when playing MMO which gets it up to 90%+ usage sometimes). 

Not with Intels Cooler which is this subject of the topic. my 4690k Gets thermal throttled without any OC when its getting benched. Yours would too. had the stock for a few months now im on a 120mm AIO that cools it fine at a okay OC

Still using the stock cooler. Just to be clear, I have OSD in MSI Afterburner turned on so I have temps visible at all times while gaming.

And who mentioned benching?

Then your not pushing it as hard as you think which is good and means you dont need a better one.  but it cant keep a Processor like that at 100% for more then just a 10 second burst without temps going wayy up.

Look at my updated reply.

I thought his testing was pretty fucking flawed: almost nobody would use this fans open air and inside a case well, the case itself could negate much of this effect specially if it's narrow enough. 

 

Testing airflow on open air is useless if you ask me. 

Don't forget some people prefer a pull setup so with fans of this design it will not work optimally as Linus showed in one of his videos. Why design the fans this way if the conventional square frame works just as well? If there is no benefit over traditional square frame on push setup inside a case with potentially worse cooling on pull setup or in open air, then that is an inferior design.

 

Gamer Nexus did thorough testing on the EVGA CLC and their result shows that cooling performance at lower RPM is much worse than their NZXT and Corsair counterpart at the same RPM and noise level. While on higher RPM the results are almost identical. The efficiency of this fan design is not great.

I'll look his review up but that's all I was asking for vs Jays literal fucking smoke and mirrors.
