AMD has a special treat for anyone looking to build a Ryzen rig this holiday season. The Ryzen 7 2700 and Ryzen 5 2600X are being made available with an upgraded Wraith Max LED cooler packed inside instead of the coolers that normally ship with them.
AMD sells five Wraith coolers With their CPUs and APUs. They include the Wraith Stealth, Spire, Spire LED (with RGB lighting), Max, and Prism.
Normally, the retail boxed version of the Ryzen 7 2700 ships with a Wraith Spire LED cooler, and the Ryzen 5 2600X comes with a Wraith Spire. The Wraith Max is typically sold separately, while the Ryzen 7 2700X comes with a Wraith Prism.
The Wraith Max is a more powerful solution than the Spire variants, and according to AMD’s James Prior, is “like having [a] ~200W TDP cooler on the processor.”
“Should be good for Precision Boost / XF2 or old fashioned overclocking,”
Prior stated in a followup tweet announcing the holiday bundle.
It’s not clear how long the special bundles will be available, so act fast!
