ryzen to be 300watt while overclocked(how much cooling is needed?)

[kiwibacon]

gamersnexus reported that the ryzen 12core is pushing 300 watts when overclocked.

Is a noctua cooler capable of cooling that or do I need a custom loop????

16? the highest I've seen is 12

 

and 300 watts of cooling? see it as a overclocked i9

i dont know if there is air cooling solution for that temperature and i think there isnt. You will have to go to watercoolling...but seriously would it ever reach that much in Watt anticipation? Then you should better running underneath a pool....

Most high end air coolers are usually rated up to like 225 or 250w TDP, so you will likely need a high end water cooling to be able to overclock properly.
