Node 202: temp of Ryzen 2600 with NH-L9A

[atmosfearz567]

Hello. I've recently got Ryzen 2600 in Node 202 slightly overclocked to 3.9 with 1.15V, but I had to replace my Wraith Stealth because it came with annoying noise. So I bought Noctua NH-L9A and problem is that temperature is really worse than with Wraith Stealh (50+ idle and ~70 gaming). I bet the problem of this cooler is the height (it's too small so It probably gets hot air back). Do you have any ideas how to solve it (I mean only x2 40x40 fans for case?). Maybe this is not ok behavior and I need to repaste and remount cooler?

Listen. I'm rolling with a small itx build with a ryzen 7 2700; and I got to say temps are an issue. It will be hard to find a great cpu cooler that will fit that case. Especially since the NH-L9A would have been at the top of my list for a short cpu cooler. There might be enough room in the case for a water cooler like a NZXT Kraken m22, however, from the looks of it, you'll need to modify that case to fit one in.

I was just asking is that ok that NH-L9a worse than Wraith Stealth. Most likely I had to buy ID Cooling IS-60 or Shuriken 2 (but no am4). It's the best air coolers possible for Node 202.

Yea, I was right, removing dust filter gave me almost 10 degrees. Easier to clean dust I think...
