[SOLVED] AMD Ryzen 5700G CPU Cooler

[Gamer335]

If I am not overclocking, will a stock wraith spire cooler sufficiently cool the Ryzen 5700g?

If that's the cooler that came with it, absolutely.

5700G's aren't sold as boxed processors so they don't come with any cooler, much less a Spire. Unless the OEM or system builder bundled one on it. They do anything to move a system cheaply...just watch some of the latest GamersNexus videos on pre-builts.

A spire will definitely work better than nothing but the CPU's going to be throttling back fiercely and probably even over heating. It's 8 core/16 threads just like a 3800X except it also has an 8 core GPU under the same heatspreader, so nothing less than a Wraithe Prism. But 3800X's respond with much better performance under superior cooling (a 240mm AIO or Dark Rock 4 class of cooler); I have to think a 5700G would too.

I tend to lean towards going better than stock. Great opportunity to utilize an aftermarket option. Even meager ones tend to outperform the Spire. I also feel like a Prism would be the way to go, or better.
