Intel stock cooler on Ryzen 1700x?

[Apple_4]

Hello, do I need a new cooler for the Ryzen 1700x on the Gigabyte AORUS AX370-GAMING 5? Or will my Intel stock cooler fit on it?

Ignore that was for another thread.

Stock cooler uses different mounting measurements than AM4. So it won't work at all.

Plus, Ryzen runs a lot hotter than Skylake, so the stock cooler wouldn't be enough either way.

Is there a reason why you can't use an aftermarket heatsink?
