Ryzen 9 3900x + TUF GAMING X570-PLUS: a good idea?

[databreach]

Hi, I'm making a parts list for my dad and he wanna get off his old 8-core Xeon processor (E5-2670 for anyone wondering). I recently got him hyped up about ryzen and AMD in general and wants to do a full custom build now. My question is very simple: will this board handle the 3900x and if so, should I replace the cooler (i'm not planning to do any overclocking). Also, is the chipset fan gonna be loud inside the system?

The chipset fan is not loud at all, I have the same board.

 

I don't believe the 3900x comes with a stock cooler, so you'd need an aftermarket cooler. I'd recommend a 240mm AIO minimum, or a DRP4 or NDH14/15

Nah it comes with wraith prism which is great but anyway thanks for the info. I was definitely worried for a bit

I'm not SME, but it says on AMDs website that it does not come with a cooler.

Even if it does, I would not put a stock cooler on a 3900x. Not only do I think it would do a horrible job, but if you're putting that much money into a CPU + Mobo combo, you should have the decency to drop a $90 cooler on it.

look up reviews on the wraith prism it's more than enough for me.

That board is more than enough for the 3900X, no issues at all. The chipset fan shouldn't be particularly loud, but if you are concerned about noise, I would consider buying an aftermarket cooler, as that will make a big difference in volume. The stock fan will be pretty loud under load. Something like the Scythe Fuma 2 or NH-D15 will be significantly quieter.

Those aren't available in my region (or at least the stores I'm buying from) can you recommend anything else (AIOs also would be cool )

What case are you planning to use and what stores can you buy from?

[databreach]

Corsair 220t. Also stores I'm buying from are Amazon.fr (which is quite dead and has nothing rn) and ldlc.fr

[Dravinian]

I am running both, been fine, running a corsair H100i because I didn't really want RGB.

 

System with PBO runs at 60c under Cinebench R20, runs about 65c after 12 hours of folding.

Thank you, after doing some research I decided to go with NZXT full blacked out look (Kraken X73)
