1600x Cooling Solution

[Mister_Shots]

I got the 1600x brand new for 50$ less than the non x variant. Saved 50$ on the cpu now I can spend it on the cooler. Am looking for a front to back mounted air cooler. (since this is my first build I don't want to jump into water just yet. Plus I hear Ryzen does great on air cooling because of the metal between the die and heatspreadder.) The reason I am on here instead of Newegg, is because I was reading review after review with no performance results. Rather 90% of the reviews just being people reviewing how easy/hard it was mounting it. If you have a suggestion don't hesitate lol. Sorry if I sound a little annoyed haha.

Looks very promising for the price. It says it's compatible up to AM3+ how hard is it to find a mounting bracket?

I didn't look at the socket compatibility sorry. I can find a different one though.

NO! THE HYPER 212 ISN'T THE SOLUTION TO EVERYTHING COOLING. It is very good for its price but it can't cool everything.

its better then the stock 1600 cooler and the stock cooler is already good enough for a 1600 @ 3.8 so i think the hyper 212 will do just fine

As for the cooler you sent me at first I am reading I can order a free mounting bracket from the manufacturer with proof of purchase.

Ok well I found another one that is actually meant for that socket that I think would be better then a Hyper 212.

He got a 1600x and the hyper 212 is not enough, it just isn't big enough.

This one will do perfectly!  The noctua is great but a little out of budget but thank all of you anyways!

Yes I guess it would work but those temps still seem pretty high. 70 degrees is pretty high but that's when it's overclocked so.
