Cooling the Ryzen 5 2600X

[redscape]

Hey!

 

I'm currently parting together my first PC build. For my budget, i decided to get a Ryzen 5 2600X, an RTX 2060, and 16GB of RAM.

Now my questions are:

 

1. Is the included Wraith Spire is enough to cool the CPU? (Have generally head pretty positive reviews about this cooler, but wanted some opinions.)

2. If i do have to get a new cooler, which is the better one outta these three: Cooler Master MasterLiquid LIte 120ML, Corsair Hydro H60 2018, or the be quiet! Dark Rock 4? (all priced similarly)

 

Thanks in advance.

1. The Wraith Spire can handle the 2600X even with a light overclock.

2. I recommend the Dark Rock 4 out of those three.

small AIOs such, avoid if possible. but even among air coolers, I rarely choose the Dark Rock Pro 4 because coolers like the Scythe Mugen 5 Rev B or Thermalright Macho Rev B / RT deliver 80% the performance for about half the price.

I agree, but in my location those parts are hard to come by. Out of the ones available, at this price the Dark Rock 4 looks great!
