I'm building a new PC, all the parts are ordered... except a CPU Cooler. I've got a Ryzen 5 2600X on the way, and I know it comes with a Wraith Spire cooler. However, I've read that the CPU gets kinda toasty, and what may be a slight problem is the fact that I'm building the PC within a Bitfenix Prodigy M case, which isn't the greatest for airflow. I plan to have 120mm fans installed in the top of the case in the intake position, and the fan in the rear of the case as exhaust.
I don't plan to overclock the CPU at all, but would it be best to see about a more capable air cooler to help keep the airflow going? I have maybe $40-50 that I could spend. The Case specs states that CPU Coolers up to 160mm in height can fit. If the Wraith Spire will be fine, all the better. I just haven't seen anyone build anything with Ryzen in the case (and I've been looking). Any advice would be helpful!
