WEBVTT 00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:07.680 When you think of the heat sink that comes with a new CPU, you probably 00:00:04.560 --> 00:00:09.599 envision a sad little hunk of metal that 00:00:07.680 --> 00:00:14.320 doesn't manage to keep your processor that cool in spite of its fan that 00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:20.880 sounds like a freaking jet engine. And overclocking, huh, forget about it. 00:00:17.520 --> 00:00:23.680 Fortunately, AMD has heard the cries of 00:00:20.880 --> 00:00:29.840 its users who have been plaggued in the past by high temperatures and loud fans 00:00:27.599 --> 00:00:36.160 and rolled out a new line of stock coolers for Ryzen called Wraith. Not 00:00:34.160 --> 00:00:40.640 only has testing indicated that these coolers deliver pretty solid performance 00:00:38.879 --> 00:00:47.680 as long as you're not doing any extreme overclocking, but that they also stay 00:00:43.440 --> 00:00:50.000 relatively quiet under load. So then now 00:00:47.680 --> 00:00:54.879 that we have a line of three stock coolers that looks like it's actually 00:00:52.640 --> 00:00:59.600 better than the 15 pieces of flare bare minimum, let's have a closer look at 00:00:57.039 --> 00:01:05.280 each of them and show you how to install them. The smallest of the three is the 00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:12.240 Wraith Stealth, which comes with Ryzen 3 chips as well as the Ryzen 5400. It's 00:01:08.479 --> 00:01:14.960 designed for 65 watt TDP processors and 00:01:12.240 --> 00:01:20.400 looks strikingly similar to an Intel stock cooler with its low profile and 00:01:17.600 --> 00:01:28.080 round body. Now, if you step up to any Ryzen 5 chip that does include a cooler 00:01:24.320 --> 00:01:31.680 or a Ryzen 7, you will instead get a 00:01:28.080 --> 00:01:34.320 Wraith Spire, which looks like a taller 00:01:31.680 --> 00:01:41.759 Stealth. This one is rated to handle up to a 95watt TDP processor and is even 00:01:38.560 --> 00:01:44.479 useful for modest overclocks. 00:01:41.759 --> 00:01:50.000 If you go for the Ryzen 7, your Spire will actually come with an RGB ring that 00:01:46.799 --> 00:01:52.079 is customizable with AMD software. The 00:01:50.000 --> 00:02:00.079 really heavy hitter of the bunch is the Wraith Max, which boasts 140 watts of 00:01:56.799 --> 00:02:02.320 heat dissipation and a heat pipe design, 00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:10.560 something we haven't seen much of in the past. It also comes with a programmable 00:02:06.079 --> 00:02:12.879 RGB ring. Pretty sexy. Unfortunately, 00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:18.879 these aren't actually sold with any retail box CPUs, and the only official 00:02:16.080 --> 00:02:24.239 way to get your hands on one is to buy a pre-built system. So then, there are 00:02:21.440 --> 00:02:28.879 actually two entirely separate mounting methods here, both of which require 00:02:26.480 --> 00:02:34.640 thermal compound for your CPU, unless the pre-applied stuff is still on there. 00:02:31.680 --> 00:02:39.360 If you're installing a Wraith Max or an aftermarket cooler that still uses the 00:02:37.040 --> 00:02:46.000 classic clips that have been with us since the socket 754 days, you can go 00:02:42.640 --> 00:02:48.319 back and watch this really old techie. 00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:53.920 Or you can just not bother. Position the clip around the mount and just push the 00:02:50.720 --> 00:02:57.200 lever around and down for a nice secure 00:02:53.920 --> 00:02:59.840 fit. If you're using the Spire or the 00:02:57.200 --> 00:03:04.080 Stealth, you'll need to unscrew the clip mounts, leaving behind a back plate, 00:03:02.080 --> 00:03:08.480 which comes standard on all AM4 motherboards. Then you just screw in the 00:03:06.640 --> 00:03:12.800 four built-in screws on the Stealth or Spire, making sure to use a crisscross 00:03:10.879 --> 00:03:18.879 pattern to avoid putting too much pressure on one side of the CPU. Both of 00:03:16.480 --> 00:03:23.599 them then require plugging your fan into the CPU header on the motherboard. Then, 00:03:21.280 --> 00:03:30.159 if applicable, you connect the included RGB cable to either a USB 2.0 header or 00:03:27.920 --> 00:03:35.519 an RGB header on your motherboard so you can sync with the rest of your system. 00:03:32.319 --> 00:03:38.400 And that's it.
