Wraith MAX on a Ryzen 5 2600 [Share post]

[Casual Cube]

This should be a PSA cus I couldnt get enough info on it before.

 

I have an R5 2600 that I used with the stock stealth cooler. My first horizontal facing cpu cooler and I loved the aesthetics. 

Sadly, I couldnt overclock worth a damn, and just let it turbo to 3.700 while hitting 70-75. (I live in the mideast)

 

Recently I built a PC for a client and he got himself a 2700X but wanted an aftermarket cooler I grabbed the unused Wraith MAX rgb and by golly...

 

It turbo'd to 3.850 from the get go and kept under 50c idle. I was blown away and now I just used this headroom to OC to 4.1 at 1.35V and its kicking STILL UNDER 60.

People out there should know that a wraith MAX rgb is a stylish af cooler that also does performs brilliantly.

 

 

 

Thanks for reading my little flex

Friend of mine upgraded from the stealth to the prism, basically the same as the max. Didn't see the drastic gains you did but it's clearly better with that nice big cooler and XFR doing work.

Thanks man, I'm really happy with the cahnge.

imo the MAX is beefy af compared to the other two. The prism is taller than the stealth but doesnt have enough "hunk" to soak up the heat you know?
