Solution for OC Ryzen 7 2700 with stock cooler
I increased the clock speed of my Ryzen 7 2700 to evaluate performance with the Wraith cooler, then tried it with a Corsair liquid cooler... two different setups: one under $60 with many fans, and another around $100 with tempered glass. Right now, I’m stress testing AIDA64 with the Wraith in a slightly cheaper case, and it’s holding steady at 56°C for 12 minutes while running all cores. This is with the Wraith cooler; it’s currently at 3.85 OC but will be tested at 4.1 after this run. Tomorrow I’ll repeat the test using the liquid cooler and compare the results.
I repeated the process several times with AIDA64 while Ryzen Master was running simultaneously. The average temperature difference was about 10 degrees, with Ryzen Master being 10 degrees higher. With the Wraith cooler, the Ryzen 7 2700 reaches 3.85 OC and operates at around 72°C in a cheaper case equipped with four exhaust fans and a large side panel fan.
Update: I successfully ran the OC at 4GHz using the H80i v2 Corsair liquid cooler – it stayed perfectly stable, and during stress tests and Cinebench it remained around 30°C, whereas with the Wraith it would have been between 60-70°C.
I managed to reach 3.85 GHz with the Wraith cooler, even at higher temperatures, though it was still stable. Anything above that I wouldn’t suggest, as I encountered crashes when trying 4GHz on the stock cooler.
