The stock cooler that comes with it produces the same thermals as the 212 Evo. In my opinion there is no need to upgrade the cooler unless you plan on heavily overclocking the CPU.

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

Have you checked your mounting or thermal paste spread? That doesn't sound right, I've built several computers using the 3600 and the stock stealth cooler and even playing heavily CPU usage games it hasn't gotten that hot.

No, it doesn't, the Wraith Prism is still slightly worse than the Hyper 212 Evo and the 3600 comes with the Wraith Stealth which is significantly worse. 

 

@Brendonn The coolers mentioned are fairly similar. What kind of features are you looking for in a cooler? 

Where are you shopping / located? Budget? 

What case and ram are you using?
