Is the 3990x the multiboxer's dream cpu?

[WOWBOX40]

Thanks for the response. The temps are better than I thought, especially since you OC'd it. So that S36 cooler doesn't cover the whole cpu and you still get those temps? Or does it come with a larger plate that covers the whole surface of the 3960x?

It was the best cooler i could find at the time i built the pc. Its not ideal, as the coldplate doesnt cover the entire cpu surface. It does touch within the 4 parts this cpu has though. But temps arent bad at all. But obviously try get a cooler thats properly suited for the threadripper, if you are planing to aio cool it.

The higher cores variants probably look different under the skin = you will then need a full cover cpu surface block.

I can take it for a torture raidtest later this saturday. I will then provide a better update, tempwise.
