Wraith Spire LED Cooler vs evo or similar price

[mockedarche]

Hello I have a r7 1700 clocked at 3.4ghz on the stock cooler. Temps are really good but its only at 1.08v so undervolted. When I overvolt to hit 3.7 ghz I need the fan at max speed (which is too loud) and the temps at even 80% usage is above 75cish. Simply put would a 212 evo allow me to reach 3.8ghz or 3.9ghz (note at 3.7ghz its around 1.285v).  I know my fan is weirdly louder than others and at lower than 70% it has a sound to the fan that shows something is wrong. The fan isn't messed up just louder than others. Is the 212 evo fan loud. Note I just woke up so I know this isn't typed out perfecty. Also I would like to hit 3.8ghz so I can power use my pc while gaming and streaming. Thank you any reply is welcomed.

I'd say the 212 EVO would do a fantastic job. It was able to keep my furnace of a G3258 at 4.6 under 70C until the TIM under the IHS got to a point last year where I needed more headroom. Was also fairly quiet until you had to start ramping the fan up, but even then it wasn't that obnoxious.

The Cryorig H7 is a great option as well and performs better than the 212 evo. There is also the new Quad Lumi version as well.

This is the first time I have ever seen "furnace" and "G3258" in the same sentence, presumably in a serious context.

 

@Ohsnaps 3.7GHz is about as high as the Wraith Spire can comfortably go on a 1700. Anything beyond that is stretching the ability of the Spire to cool. Source: been there, done that. I'm using a Cryorig H5 Ultimate and have zero regrets, but a 212 EVO, Gammaxx 400 (highly recommend), Hyper T4 or H7 would be more than enough. The 1700 is not a particularly hot CPU.

Most definitely in a serious context. You'd think an H115i would be massively overkill for a lil' dual-core on a 24/7 OC, but even with a ~21C ambient during the winter, the little sucker will still creep up on 70 with even the liquid temps hitting 38 (fans at around 45-48% which is the upper limit of bearable for me).

What kind of voltage were you pushing through it? I had my little guy at 1.365v 24/7 to hit 4.5GHz, and I don't recall ever breaking past the low 70s under full synthetic load.

Think right now it's at 1.34 or 1.35.

Similar results here. I had a few at 1.45v and they'd be at low 70's as well under a NH-U12S. 

 

@Ohsnaps Where are you shopping/located? Budget?
