AMD Wraith Prism RGB LED CPU Heatsink Cooler AM4 OEM

Product Information

There is no official software from AMD/Cooler Master or the different motherboard manufacturers that work on Linux or Mac. You need to use third-party software to control the RGB of your cooler for these operating systems. Thankfully, there are a lot of options available: In both Handbrake and Blender, the Ryzen 7 7700 is once again significantly slower than the Core i7-12700K and the Core i5-13600K. Things are slightly better in POV-Ray 3.7, but the best that can be said for the Ryzen 7 7700 there is that it doesn't lose by quite as large of a margin in the single-threaded test. It has come to our attention that third-party coolers using six heat pipes that are designed to look like an official AMD Wraith Prism solution, including the illegitimate use of AMD branding, are now entering the market. Please be aware that those solutions are not genuine AMD products and have not been tested and validated by AMD to meet our build quality and performance requirements. We are actively investigating the source of these products and will take necessary actions to enforce our rights to ensure users receive genuine AMD products. If you have any questions about the origin of a cooler, please verify the solution here."

It's the same at 1440p, so at least in this game it doesn't matter which model you use, performance will be the same. The Xigmatek Aurora blitzes almost every other AIO thanks to several factors. Firstly, it sports an ultra-high TDP of 450W, which means you won’t have any problems pushing your Ryzen 7 3700X to the best of its limits. Secondly, it has a hyper-compact low height of 27mm, so you won’t encounter any interference with RAM modules or motherboard VRMs (Voltage Regulator Modules). Thanks to Xigmatek’s Ceramic Axle Bearing, the Aurora 360 should perform flawlessly for many years to come, supplemented by the specialized 8-pole motor, which helps to sustain a high fluid flow rate while maintaining a virtually inaudible noise profile at a maximum of 27 dB(A). As we saw the Intel Core i7-13700K ahead of the Ryzen 9 7900X in the last review, it had an even bigger advantage here when the AMD chip was limited by power draw. The Core i5-13600K is now almost a dead tie with the 7900 in all aspects. But how much cooler are we running with the DeepCool Castle 360EX? Quite a bit cooler, it turns out.For gamers, the bundled Wraith Prism will be even less of an issue as it's very unlikely you'll see all 12-cores loaded up. We observed that when gaming the fan speed was generally around 2000 RPM and much quieter than what we saw when stress testing with Blender. Unlike the 7600X, the vanilla 7600 does come with a box cooler, it's only the low-profile Wraith Stealth, but it works and will save you some money on the cooler. The 6 copper heatpipes are responsible for the AK620’s outstanding performance, and despite a maximum speed of 1850 RPM, the DeepCool AK620 sports an incredibly silent sound profile, coming in at just 28 dB(A).

First up I measured peak temperatures after 30 minutes of gameplay during our Overwatch bot match stress test. Using the Wraith Prism saw the 2600 peak at just 47 degrees which is very cool and the VRM never exceeded 43 degrees, these are exceptional temperatures for a reasonably heavy gaming load, speaking of which CPU utilization hovers around 50% in this test. Because of these low temps the Prism fan never spun faster than 1600 RPM and at that speed it's virtually silent. The fans have an RPM ranging from 600 – 1800 RPM with a noise output of 31.8dbA. The thermal cooling capacity or TDP is 380W, which is plenty for cooling your 3700x. An essential aspect of any CPU cooler would be the relative performance it offers. The fan’s specs, including the max RPMs alongside the amount of airflow it produces, are of utmost importance, not to mention the size of the heatsink and the FPI (Fins Per Inch) count (the higher, the better).

Exceptional Processors Deserve Exceptional Cooling

Even the Best CPU Coolers for Ryzen 7 3700X will differentiate from each other in terms of operational efficiency. That’s why it’s crucial to choose a CPU Cooler with the capacity (and some extra clearance) to capably cool down your entire PC alongside the CPU without needing to induce thermal throttling to maintain satisfactory temperatures. You can read our Deepcool Castle 240ex Full Review for additional information. Deepcool AK620 CPU Air Cooler CPU Coolers come in many different shapes and sizes. Mainly there are three types of CPU Cooling solutions, including Custom loop Water Cooling kits, Closed-loop AIO Liquid Coolers, and Air Coolers. Each of these may have different variants based on different sizes. Air coolers are best on your budget and are reasonably easy to install. AIO Liquid Coolers and Custom Water Cooling kits deliver maximum thermal Performance but take up a considerable chunk in your budget in some cases. They have bigger density and size too. It is up to you to decide whichever suits your needs and requirements. Efficiency Selecting the Best CPU Cooler For Ryzen 7 3700x out of so many different units under different brand names is a gruesome task. People get confused and end up making the wrong choice most of the time. Maybe they’d underestimate the size of the cooler, or the Performance might not be up to their standards. There are a number of factors that you should keep in mind before buying CPU Cooler For Ryzen 7 3700x In 2023. These are explained below. Type You can’t exclusively control the AMD Wraith Prism RGB through Razer Chroma. However, if you have any Razer peripherals, you can sync their RGB with your AMD Wraith Prism cooler.

When CLC pump fails you have no cooling so system cannot be used until new cooler is installed. If air cooler fan dies cooler still works at low load, and any fan can be held on with rubber bands until replacement fan is in hand. Pictured above is the ASUS Aura Sync software through which you can customize the RGB on your AMD Wraith Prism with plenty of available options. Razer Chroma Note: ” Don’t force your cables and components into place as that may damage the parts, instead try to gently insert them. Plugging in the USB Type-2 End of the Cable into the motherboard- Image Credits (TechHut)The design of the cooler has some perks of its own. Aluminum is used to reduce the overall density of the radiator while simultaneously increasing the airflow. The RGB is a huge feature when talking about the aesthetic of the cooler. RGB lights on the fans can be controlled with either an Aerocool P7-H1 RGB Controller or 4-pin RGB headers on the motherboard. You can choose from a wide range of colors to match with your other computer components. Aerocool P7 L240 RGB Photo From Our Review. But you only need to connect one of these cables for the lighting to work on the cooler. It's not recommended to plug both in because they can work against each other. Which cable you connect though depends on how you'll be controlling the RGB lighting of the Wraith Prism, and whether or not you have an RGB header on your motherboard (not to be confused with ARGB headers which are different). Whether you use the RGB cable or the USB cable, you can have control over the lighting, but using the USB cable along with this Cooler Master software allows you the most control over the lighting. The dimensions of the unit are as under: 129x138x160mm (L x W x H). The unit is almost 120mm long with two FK120 fans. The height of the cooler is 160mm. The fins of the fans are densely related as part of the design. The unit provides good acoustics and noise output with ≤28 dBA sound levels on the fans. The fans are spinning at around 500-1850 RPM. The TDP rating is 260W. Well, we see virtually no change in performance in Apex Legends. The miniscule delta is within the margin of error though it seemed pretty clear that the slight increase in frequency typically yielded better results.
