Help : AMD Wraith Spire

Yes. Or no. Depends on what you want to do with it and on what CPU cooler you will use it.

The Spire cooler is what usually comes with a 1700 (non X), from what I can remember and it cooled mine pretty well without any overclock. A light overclock is also possible to do on that cooler.

 

Of course the noise is a bit higher than a bigger tower cooler, but that is a given with the size of the cooler.

 

P.S. feel free to ask multiple questions in one thread in the future

P.P.S. more descriptive titles are always appreciated. Your entire topic here is better suited as the title and you can give a bit more context too, like on what CPU you will use it and the case for example too.

Well, I have a good airflow case with 5 120mm fans and I want to upgrade to Ryzen 2700 (not the X) . And can you tell me if gtx 1660 is going to bottleneck that CPU,What PSU do I need?

Make sure you quote people or use @Minibois so people see your responses

 

Also, change your topic titles to something more accurate to your question, as opposed to a distress call

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

500W would be more than plenty, something like a CX550M would be a good option.

But it also depends on what you can get where you live, in general I would recommend a PSU of around 500-550W that is tier B or higher:

The Spire would be fine for cooling the 2700. It's the stock cooler that it ships with.
