it's not a matter of cheap coolers, but that companies didn't bother to make cheap coolers for a platform that accommodates 32 cores

the 2700X is just better, same amount of cores and threads but faster clocks and better architecture.

 

check these out:

Ryzen 7 1700

same generation and core count, so just as good.

Ryzen 7 2700

generation newer and faster.

 

both of these CPUs can use much, much cheaper coolers and motherboards, and you can upgrade to much better performance.

 

Thanks for your advice boss

only 8 cores, you can probably get a really cheap cooler.

 

Did you get this 1900X for extremely cheap/free?

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

why are you getting a 1900x now?

a 212 evo or some other decent air cooler should be fine.

perhaps return it and get an 8 core Ryzen 7 processor? That way you get the AM4 upgrade path, and with as low as a B450 motherboard, you get access to 4th gen parts.

 

They also come with their own coolers. eBay 1700 and maybe 2700 deals are out there, for sure.

I already run a Amd 2700x with its stock cooler on my streaming pc. This one is to do heavier lifting that need more threads.

even if you don't want more cores moving from a 1900x on an expensive board to a 2700x or a 3700x on a b450/b550 is way better

Well because first I have a tr4 mobo and threadripper already, second to buy another mobo and another amd 3700x or 3900x to be able to have a second station would be outrageously expensive...when I just needed a good cheap cooler. Did I make better sense?

I just didn't think I'd have to explain more when all I asked was a how cheap to go for a threadripper.
