I have an FX-8300 CPU in a Cooler Master H500 case. I use it now with the stock cooler but I can't go over 3.4Ghz because high temps.
The question is that having an AMD Wraith Prism RGB cooler would be a good jump in temps if I want to overclock it around 4Ghz?
In my country it's on a sale and it's only 14$.
 
Solution
Yes it's an upgrade over the old FX stock coolers and for 14 bucks its a good deal. Another good cheap option would be the Gammaxx 400 or Coolermaster Hyper 212 which both are pretty cheap on the used market as well.
