Help identifying a CPU air cooler

Hello everyone, I am looking for help identifying this Cooler Master CPU air cooler that is currently installed on my computer.  It is sitting on my Ryzen 7 1700X CPU.  At base clock (3.4) and game boost clock (3.6) it has done fine.  I am doing some thinking about possible upgrades down the line, and possibly doing some overclocking.  Can anyone specify which model this is?  Worth it to look into upgrading if I get into overclocking? 

 

The rest of my build in case it becomes relevant.  MSI B350M Bazooka MoBo, Ryzen 7 1700x, GTX 1070, 16GB of RAM currently at 2933 (I will probably upgrade to 3200 G.Skill Flare X, but am currently waiting for a deal).  In a Phanteks P400 case.

 

Thanks in advance!

Dont know its name, but any AM4 supported cooler that's not too tall for the case will fit in.

I don't need to worry about width?  I've seen some pretty bulky coolers, and there doesn't seem to be a lot of real estate on this Mobo.

Maybe some AMD variant of this: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835103086

 

Either way it's a pretty obscure cooler it looks like. And yes you should definitely upgrade to something a bit bigger.

Even the widest air cooler wont hit the graphics card with the correct orientation

 

this is a dark rock pro 3 sitting on an mATX mobo. Tight fit, but it fits nonetheless

That's on an AM4 board right now?!

 

Honestly, it looks to me like the stock cooler from a prebuilt. I doubt OEMs feel like paying for the Wraith series on a board that's almost certainly locked to prevent overclocking. If you intend to overclock, I'd absolutely look for something better. Even if the temperatures are clinging to the ragged edge of ok, that thing's going to sound like a DC-9 on a short field when it warms up.

I enjoy buying junk and sinking more money than it's worth into it to make it less junk.
