For years now, PC builders have had to deal with a noisy stock CPU cooler at one point or another, whether it be from Intel or AMD. However, things could improve this year as AMD has demoed its newly designed ‘Wraith' stock CPU cooler, which aims to be much quieter than the standard cooler we have been used to.
The new thermal solution will be bundled with upcoming CPUs from AMD and presumably APUs as well though that has not been confirmed just yet. The Wraith cooler features a four heat-pipe design and judging by the demo video, it will be a significant improvement as far as noise levels go.

The Wraith stock cooler comes with a physically larger fan and heatsink, allowing more heat to be dissipated at lower fan RPMs. The additional heat-pipes will also help transfer the heat away from the CPU at a faster rate than the previous stock cooler.
The cooler is rated for up to 125W of thermal dissipation. However, AMD has yet to confirm exactly what chips will be shipping with this new cooler, or if it intends to repackage any of its current CPUs with it.
KitGuru Says: While a stock cooler may never be great for overclocking, it is good to see AMD improving the experience for those who don't necessarily want to go out and buy a new CPU cooler or push chip frequencies to the max. Are any of you currently using a stock CPU cooler?
That is a major improvement! Love to see how they improved the noise levels of the stock cooler as they are usually extremely loud. What about the performance though? Is it on par with some after marketcoolers?
I would love to see the performance gain from this, however has far as noise goes, wow thats way more nice on the ears! Lets see it compared to Intel’s and some after market coolers.
Then again Intels newest stock coolers are completely 0dB! and invisible! 😛
That said, they do kinda suck at cooling… 😉
At least your house stays warm xD
LoL
Noise reducing techniques are acceptable as long as there is no compromise on performance.
now i want intel core i3 in canonlake use passive cooler. that will blow people minds
obviously, AMD is not in the cooler business so I wonder who made this for them?
A few days ago new McLaren F1 subsequent after earning 18,512$,,,this was my previous month’s paycheck ,and-a little over, 17k$ Last month ..3-5 h/r of work a day ..with extra open doors & weekly paychecks.. it’s realy the easiest work I have ever Do..

Hmm, I must say I’ve not really found that, especially in a closed chassis. Although that was years ago with my Athlon x4 640 and x2 4800+ when I wasn’t so focused on noise-reduction
Regardless, if it’s that quiet in open-air, I’d imagine it’s near-silent in a case. Definitely a nice improvement so long as it’s performance remains the same (and I’m sure it will)
