I'm curious about which Ryzen 7 CPUs are bundled with the Wraith Prism LED cooler. I've read that the Ryzen 7 7700 is the only one officially listed with it, but I wonder if there are any older models that might also come with this cooler. The reason I'm asking is that I found a used listing for a "Ryzen 7000 series processor" for $105. The seller claims it's in great condition, just an open box, but they didn't specify the model or include pictures of the CPU itself—only the box and the cooler. This seller seems reputable, with thousands of transactions and good reviews, but the listing is a bit vague. Based on the cooler and the box, I'm suspecting it might be the 7700. I noticed they sell GPUs too, and they usually mention if something isn't working, so I'm assuming the CPU is functional.

Have you tried reaching out to them to get more details about which CPU they're selling? It’s kind of odd they only listed it as "Ryzen 7000 series processor" when they have such a good reputation. I would definitely ask before making a decision!
I checked out their profile too. It looks like they've got a lot of positive reviews but tend to not respond to messages. I’ve had good experiences on Mercari as well, but I’m thinking of waiting to see if the listing is still up later, especially since I don’t have other parts of my build ready yet.
Actually, the 5800X does come with the Wraith Prism cooler. But the box looks different from the 7700, so you might be able to rule that one out based on what you see in the listing.
Gotcha! The box is another reason I doubt it's the 5800X. It's tough without much info or photos; I’m just hoping the seller gets back to me soon!
Yeah, I just messaged them. I hope they respond soon! Just trying to figure out if any experts have concrete info on this. Maybe they have multiple staff and someone wasn’t sure about the specifics, which could mean it wasn't really tested.
