Ryzen build

[silasqwerty1]

Hello! I'm planning on buying a Ryzen 5 1600x, and I want to know what cooler I should buy for it. I want to spend less than $50, if at all possible. I want a fairly good quality fan, but I don't plan on pushing my system to it's absolute limits either. What would you all recommend?

you could get the hyper 212 evo if its compatible with the motherboard

 

if not you could just use the wraith cooler that comes with it since its freeeee. and i hear its pretty good

Cryorig H7, better than 212 evo, no ram issues, looks nicer then 212 evo. Usually about 30-35 dollars.

or the 212 dual fan, now with one more fan

cause it's in budget and an extra fan definitely can't hurt especially if your overclocking.

 

And the Wraiths are actually quite good I believe, can't remember who, (I think it might of been jayztwocents) who reviewed the stock cooler and they are very capable and overclock well enough

I disagree I don't think it looks nicer personally. that being said that can be down entirely to personal preference

Guess you could disagree but the 212 evo looks like the price point its from, the H7 doesn't IMO

Ok, I've heard that the 1600x doesn't come with a wraith cooler, but I can look at that some more. Is the 212 evo compatible with am4?

H7                                                            212 Evo

Yea it might be better for this price point, mind you the stock wraith cooler is also quite a good cooler so don't put it out of the race yet.

 

Also I was wrong it wasn't jay it was bitwit

yea it does look like a good stock cooler, which can't be said to the same extent about intels

Ok, thank you all! It looks like it will come with a wraith spire, which should be good enough for me.
