Is a Wraith Prism adequate to cool a 3900x?

I just have one question. 

Since I have basically been the person all my friends go to for cooling questions, one of my close friends wants to upgrade to a 3900x and cool their 3900x with the included Wraith Prism. Will this be enough?

With good airflow in the case, sure.

 

Could have just added this your other thread about cooling as well.

Wraith prisms are very high quality coolers, u don't need anything better unless u overclock at very high voltage(it might still handle)

Adequate, but barely. Don't expect it to be quiet either.

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

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I needATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explainedgroup reg is bad

Stop misleading the OP,  please. The so famous prism is actually inferior to such a simple and cheap cooler as Deepcool Gammaxx300 or Alpenföhn Ben Nevis (ID cooling SE-213V2).

 

even a ~15$ cooler outperforms the prism. Not good enough for 3900..

Life is really challenging. I don't always suceed: )

Stop complaining the op just wants to know if the cooler is enough, wraith prism handles the 3900x(even with mild oc) and deepcool Gammaxx 300 is obviously better than the wraith prism but the difference is just a bit low temperature

It should be okay for stock clocks, just make sure you don't overclock and have good airflow in your case.
