Hi, I was just curious if I wanted to buy the 2700x would I have to buy a new cooler to cool it or will my Arctic Freezer 33 Esport (2 Fan variant) be sufficient enough? … It says that the 2700x TDP is 105W and the recommended for the cooler is max 210W but it can cool UP TO around 310W apparently.

very similar to hyper212, which worked on my 2700x but noisy and hot
if you plan on keeping your 2700x on base clock 3.7ghz then yeah 105w TDP is accurate, else boosts are 140w / 180w
 


I have a 1800x @4GHz, I was curious cause the 2700x nearly matches the 8700K so if I would find an amazing deal that would defo be the place to go. See the cooler keeps my 1800x below 70 on BF1 on average and peaks max around 72 degrees, at 1.35v with my 1080 mostly being 97% usage. So I knew the 2700x would defo be hotter and harder to cool but would I NEED an upgrade to cool it when OC, does it peak like 80s temps? or high 70s and sits around low/mid 70s?.
 


I was running the hyper212 push / pull + (2) 120mm for intake / exhaust close the heatsink
CPU Tdie while gaming was about 42c and PRIME95 pushed past 65c that was under PBO (which goes 160w -180w)
Yours should work just fine, fans might ramp up a bit..

Switched to a cheap AIO, masterliquid 120 with push/pull(lower RPM) and got rid of the 2 extra fans
Now it's about 40c gamming and 60c Prime. Temps are from Asrock utility which reports Tdie + TCtrl as I don't trust Ryzen Master or other 3rd party tools.
