Ok so my friend is upgrading to an AMD 3900x and Asus B550-F. He is passing his AMD 3700x with Stock Wrath Prism Cooler & B450-F to me for cheap.
I am skipping the Stock cooler and using my Scythe Fuma 2 on the AMD 3700x which has equivalent 65watt TDP as my current old 1st Gen 1600, should be sufficient right?
Now the tricky part is finding a good Air Cooled CPU Cooler for the 3900x which I see runs HOT! I don't think its a good idea running it with the AMD Stock Wrath Prism cooler and he doesn't wanna do water cooling. Maybe get him a ARCTIC Freezer 34 eSports DUO, Thermalright pa120, or hmm maybe set him up with a Scythe Fuma 2 like mine. I know there are better like Noctua NH-D15 and be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4, but he is not Overclocking or anything. What do you think? Haha I can actually give him my Fuma 2 and buy a better one, since I am gonna Overclock.
PS... I am sorry in advance if you dislike me asking questions like these and reply with sarcasm and or negativity. For the rest, thanks for any help.
