wraith spire(RGB) vs prism

SO how much better is a prism over a wraith spire
My pc caes is limited to a 92mm cpu cooler and i do like a bit of RGB(Mainly the R) and most if not all 92mm fans have no LED or any type

right now i have an wraith spire(RGB) and it dose a fantastic job of cooling the 1700 @ 3.75 all core.51c gaming(i cant get more out of it(bad chip)) but i am picking up a 3600 or 3700 on payday and i dont know id the wraith spire will be upto the job of pushing the chips and over long gaming sessions.

would picking up a prism give me much better cooling power

The 3700x comes with the prism cooler so I'd use that over the spire mate the prism also comes with the 3900x aswell

The 3600 and 3700 come with the spire. I was asking as I can pick up an prism now

I have a prism on my 3600 with a 4.2 all core OC and I never see above 67c in stress tests and that's with the low switch setting so apparently limits the fan speed to 2750rpm as opposed to 3650 for high, gaming is around 50c with idle at 32c.

no you said the 3700x come with the prism, i said what about the 3700, you again said the 3700x comes with the prism

So I'd get the prism mate its a good little cooler but it can be noisey just so your aware it will cool the 3600 processor very well

Do amd actually do a 3700 as I can only find the x version which is why I kept replying with the x I can find 3600 and 3600x but not 3700
