Revised AMD Wraith Prism RGB CPU cooler surfaces, has 6 opposed to 4 heatpipes.

Revised AMD Wraith Prism RGB CPU cooler surfaces, has 6 opposed to 4 heatpipes.

If you have bought a high-end Ryzen processor in the past year or so, chances are pretty good that you've received that nice WRAITH Prism cooler bundled with it. Initially, it was released with four heat pipes.

Over in Asia at the Xfastest forums somebody noticed something alright, it seems that a new revision of the Wraith Prism is inbound, this round with six heat pipes which should offer better cooling performance. Currently, Wraith Prism offers support up-to 105 a TDP of 105W. 

An interesting fact is that the new revision ahs the exact same model number (712-000075 Rev: C) as the existing model, so it looks like AMD simply will be replacing the old one, with this new one.

The point of the embedded cooler is that many DIY first timers could buy a wrong cooler.
Completely theyr fault, ok, but an headache for sellers/company/bad advertisement.

Most of us can buy the right cooler, but someone would overshoot, buying an expensive cooler maybe, getting a different impression on the price/performance ratio.

There are a lot of reasons why i think company should provide a tailor made right cooler in retail cpu, or go with the tray version if you can access it.

I remember in the old time of the first p3 on the socket, after the slot one, tray cpus were fairly common and coolers also fairly simple. Still many were not good enough.

I guess I'm on the other end of the fence, but I like that they include such a nice stock cooler with the proc. A little more cooling potential with a new heat pipe design is even better. The fact that it's snap in is also pretty appealing. Makes for a nice quick build. I would never use the Intel junk coolers, but the wraith variants are pretty decent. I always used hyper 212's on my other builds, so this is pretty similar and a lot easier to install.

I'm using the wraith prism on my 3700X and I can't really complain about the noise unless I'm doing an AVX stress test.

The cooler is adequate, but the fan produces a noise working, I can't describe it as I never heard something similar. A 120 fan can push much more air at low RPM and would be a much better option imo.

Is it audible when playing a game?

That doesn't really justify doing away with "stock" coolers. Everyone has the option to purchase a cooler from a 3rd party if the noise bothers them.

the new one seem have 6 but more thin?
maybe it is for that they have the same revision 6 thin or 4 thick that have the same heat dissipation.
From the pictures, there doesn't appear to be much difference in heatpipe size. Maybe 1mm difference.....
