Ryzen 5600X Cooler

Hi All,

Just about to pull the trigger on this

My basket at Overclockers UK:

1 x AMD Ryzen 5 5600X - Gigabyte B550 Aorus Elite AX V2 Bundle= £454.93

Total: £465.43 (includes shipping: £10.50)

What's the best mid to upper range Air cooler to go with this, was going to transfer my Cryorig R1 Ultimate across, but the AM4 Mounting Bracket is out of Stock?

Thanks All,

Intention was to move my I5-7600K to my son's old I5-3570 build which has soldiered on for nearly 10 Years, unfortunately the Cryorig AM4 Bracket is out of stock with no lead time - hence thinking about the the Brocken 3.

Hi Joxeon,
Went with your suggestion & pulled the trigger, so far so good.

Thanks!!

Regards, Sven

Didn't use it in the end, bought the Brocken 3 dual fan.

Sits quite happily at 29 at idle, around 50 gaming and 75 -80 in cinebench using the supplied paste.

Not sure if that's ok or not coming from a long time intel user.

Your temps still good like above sven? Did you change any settings or completely stock? Any idea how much power you're drawing as I'll bet PBO was on by default. If PBO on and you've got those temps that's hella good

All I've done is enable PBO & XMP.

Long time Intel Fanboy, so I'm not sure what I need to do in the BIOS.

corsair aio would do the job

Nukem, Brocken 3 seems to be doing a fairly decent Job at the moment, main problem at the moment is the case, still using a Phanteks Enthoo Evolv ATX Mid Tower Case from 2015 - not the best for Airflow!!
