Ryzen stock cooler

[Ergroilnin]

Hello,

 

I was wondering about the included small RGB stock cooler  (I think Prism Wraith is the name?) for the Ryzen 2700x. Is it decent for normal usage? I am asking because while I did read and watch some reviews of it, I basically got a mixed feelings about it.

 

I really like how it looks and possibly not having to buy an aftermarket cooler would be sort of a nice change. I definitely am not going for custom water cooling loop or even AIO water cooler, so it would be this or another more premium after market air cooler.

 

I mean I am pretty sure, that the big tower aircoolers will work better but is it a must like in case of absolutely horrible stock coolers that come with Intel cores or is it just fine both temperature and noise wise?

Yes.

The wraith prisim is great. Its quiet and cool.

It is quiet and a very well performing cooler for stock. If you are looking to overclock, an aftermarket cooler would be better.

I can show you occt results if you want or HWMonitor results while I work/compile

I run the 2700x on 4GHz on stock cooler

 

EDIT: Just did a small package OCCT run, all 8 cores on 4GHz 1,35V hit about 85°C, on idle with low fan speed about 40°C then again my workplace is pretty warm

The AMD stock coolers are nothing like the intel toys.

So yes, the cooler is very good at stock, and good at a decent overclock. Very quiet, while keeping the processor cool, and looking cool with all that rgb.

If you want to have a big overclock you are going to need an aftermarket cooler.

Thank you guys for the replies. I do not plan on overclocking the chip once I get it. Maybe in the future, but as you all say, I would get a more powerful cooler then. I am happy knowing that the stock is really decent and will do good for a while.
