I'm buying a new PC soon and I wanted to know if that cooling is enough
I have "Pure Rock Slim 120W TDP" at home and I saw that Ryzen 2700X need 105W TDP
is that enough for him? or should I buy "Arctic Cooling Freezer 33" with 150W TDP?
 
Solution
You should be fine with that cooler. I would keep an eye on temps only if you are going to oc it to say 4.2 on all cores. Other than that you should be good to go.
My friend, don't pay too much attention to raw specs such as tdp. Test results is what mathers most:

So basicly you would be better of with either and i'm pretty sure you can sell of the stock cooler for a fair amount since it has good rep and love.

However if i were to pick up a 2700X i'd match it with a pricey but very worthy Be Quiet Dark Rock 4 (presuming there would not be a blowerstyle gpu in the case otherwise the Arctic would provide plenty for my needs). I feel that would be a great match and if you wanna go all out and oc that mthrfckr get the Be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4.
 


oh thanks, I see the Arctic is little better and DRP 4 is too much for me.. I'm not going to OC the CPU





thanks, guys but I'm not going to do any OC for this CPU
I'm going to leave it on 3.7GHZ (stock)
I was just was worry that TDP is not enough for him
