i7 9700k + CM Hyper TX3 Evo?

[JoaKimzen]

Hello

 

I just ordered all the parts for my new PC. I did something I have never done before, I bought a "diy PC kit", so all the parts come in one big package. It comes with an i7 9700k, ASUS RTX 2070 Super, 16GB 2666MHz HyperX RAM, NZXT H500 case, ASUS Rog STRIX Z390-F GAMING motherboard, Corsair TX650M 650w PSU, 2x Kingston A200 250GB nvme SSDs + 1TB Seagate barracuda HDD and lastly the Cooler Master Hyper TX3 Evo cooler. It's on a discount so I got it all for a very good price. High quality parts, including the PSU, but that TX3 Evo cooler worries me. I did some research and It's apparently very cheap and old. I do not plan on doing any overclocking. Should I get a better cooler, or is the TX3 adequate for a 9700k without an overclock? Can somebody recommend a good air cooler if you think I should go for something better? I was thinking about getting the 212 Evo, but I don't know If it's any better than the TX3.

It's probably enough for stock but not for oc'ing. You can try it out before deciding on whether or not to get a new cooler. 

The Hyper 212 Evo is a bit better but I wouldn't recommend such a small upgrade.

Ok thanks. It just worried me a bit since the TX3 is the cheapest cooler on their site, and It's about $2 less than the TS13A Intel cooler. I'm guessing It's a bit better than the intel cooler though. I found an interesting deal though. I can get a Cryorig M9 Plus CPU Cooler for about $39. It's a dual fan cooler. I have never Cryorig before. Do you know anything about it?

Do you already have the TX3 Evo or are you just planning to get a different cooler to begin with? The M9 Plus is a bit better but it's also just a small upgrade.

I don't have any of the parts yet, but since I ordered a DIY kit PC I'm gonna recieve it no matter what. I have checked with prices on their site and on PCpartpicker and this PC "kit" is about $20-$30 cheaper than what It would have cost me to buy all the parts separately, so It's not too much of an issue if I gotta spend a little extra for a better cooler.

Do you have plans for overclocking? That's kinda key factor when you choose between budget and midrange cooling.
