Does anyone know a good AM2+ cooler for Phenom IIx4 955? I would prefer one that attaches via the clips because I'm using an eATX motherboard in a micro atx case, so the backplate doesn't fit in the motherboard tray so I have to take the board out to access the screws. Budget of $50 but can go over if there's a really nice one, and no liquid cooling, lol

Thanks!

Pretty sure those clips fit the Wraith prism, considering the Ryzen 9 3900X (albeit not extraordinarily well) is cooled by it

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 need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

I know the Cooler Master Hyper TX3 uses the clip system for AMx sockets, but I dont know if its available for purchase anymore.

I used it for a ryzen 7 1700X while I waited for the AM4 bracket for my AIO, and it did just fine

If you want me to answer, please use the quote function or tag me. I dont get notified unless you do
