AMD: The Wraith Prism RGB Processor Cooler with 6 Heatpipes Is Either Fake or Replica
AMD: The Wraith Prism RGB Processor Cooler with 6 Heatpipes Is Either Fake or Replica
Earlier this week we posted a story showing a what seemed to be updated Wraith cooler from AMD. In Asia at the Xfastest forums somebody noticed a new revision of the Wraith Prism with six heat pipes.
The odd thing already was the exact same product number for his new SKU: 712-000075 Rev: C. As it turns out it is a fake, replication or a photoshopped cooler. AMD commented on this cooler via its Twitter page. AMD emphasizes in the tweet that the company's site describes what the supplied coolers look like and with which processors they are delivered.
Perhaps an enthusiastic AMD fan wanted to hint to the chip designer an updated design for the stock cooler as to what it should be like :)

Even 8 HPs wouldn't make this a decent cooler

When I saw the previous story, I felt kinda bummed out as mine has only four heatpipes (came with my 3900X). After reading this article, I feel so much better.....but then, I ask myself why I was feeling anything at all since I don't use the Prism Wraith, I'm using a 360mm AIO....

Either a damn good copy, or a photoshop. I suspect a photoshop.
