Cooler Master Hyper TX3 Evo or Wraith Spire?

Infiltrator
Finally my Ryzen 1700 arrived! Yay!
 
After a fun night of system lockups (windows updates fixed that)
drives not appearing in the bios (but installing windows fine so meh?!?!)
learning that there is now basically Intel ram and AMD ram (so my Rupjaw V 3200 is actually 2133 in AMD land, meh)
few other WTF moments, I am finally running, fast smooth and stable!
 
So here comes my question. I have a Cooler Master Hyper TX3 Evo sitting here in its box looking pretty and I have the cooler that came with the processor, the stock wraith cooler.  Since I plan to run it as fast as I can without impacting stability, which cooler would give me better cooling performance?

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 2700
Cooler: Asus Ryujn 240
Motherboard: ASUS Prime B350-Plus
Main Storage: Samsung 960 EVO 250GB
Secondary Storage: 6 Terra Raid Array
RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 32GB 3200
GPU: Asus Expedition RX570 OC
Case: Antec Nineteen Hundred in Green
PSU: 1200W

Although the wraith spire is a good stock cooler, pretty much any aftermarket cooler can still outperform it. If I were you, I would test my thermals under load with both, but I am 90% the TX3 is better.

If you have AM4 mounting hardware for TX3, then it's better. Otherwise just use stock until you feel it isn't working for loads you run.
