Verdict
AMD Wraith Prism
6.5 / 10 Expert Rating
A genuinely decent bundled cooler for its era, worth keeping for a budget build but not worth buying separately once you compare it to current low-cost aftermarket coolers.

A 360mm AIO whose real appeal is EKWB's genuine custom-loop pedigree distilled into a sealed, easier-to-install package.
