Go to solution Solved by freeagent,

Does your Scythe have an AM4 mount? If so I would use that. The cooler that comes with 5600X is truly pathetic.

 

Its literally the thickness of a hockey puck lol. 

 

It is so pathetic, that I used the stock 3600XT box cooler instead while I waited for an AM4 mount in shipping.

Would the Scythe Ninja Fuma 2 work, or should I stick with the 5600x stock cooler?

I assume you mean the Scythe Fuma 2? That's a much better cooler than the stock cooler you have.

Yes, the Fuma 2 supports AM4. I have one on my R7 2700 and it works extremely well. It's overkill for my chip at stock, so the fans almost never ramp up under load. One of the best coolers I've ever used for the money.
