Stock cooler for Ryzen X-series... Your Opinion!

So I'm using stock cooler on my Ryzen 2600x + ASRock b450m mobo, and I found that it idles at around 35~37C with -100mv vcore offset and XMP, but no PBO. I'm only using 2 stock coolers supplied with Meshify C, and I noticed that they are pretty bad... especially the front one is barely moving in any air. So I decided to add more fans before considering buying an aftermarket cooler.

 

But that is just my case, and I wanted to know how other fellows are doing with their Ryzen X-chips.

 

I bought 2600x since at the time of the purchase it was only ~$20-23 more expensive than 2600 and I thought I can just go with the stock cooler even with PBO, and I actually have seen people enabling PBO with the stock cooler, some of which actually show equal or even better result than the one using an aftermarket cooler. But it definitely requires better cooling overall inside the case it seems, and I wanted to know the setups of other people using the chips (say what cooler/how many fans you're using, the UEFI setup etc) and their opinions about the stock cooler.

 

Thanks in advance :)
