Question Ryzen 3600 cooler compatibility

[kgigov]

Hello guys,

I'm planning to upgrade my set up with Ryzen 3600 and I hope that I can reuse my current cooler (i5-6500) Scythe Funa, do you know if it's compatible with the Ryzen 3600 and MSI b450 Tomahawk MoBo.

Kind Regards,
Kaloyan Gigov

No unfortunately.

The B450 Tomahawk is AM4 socket.
The Funa can only support up to AM3+ socket.

Damn it... well I guess I would get I7-7700k, as buying a new cooler will over-exceed my budget.
