AM5 waterblock?

[ThisIsChew]

Hi there! As the 7950x is on sale for 574, I bought it, upgrading from 7900x (6 year old intel)
got 5% back with my Amazon card, so I really paid 550. 
Anyways, I’ve been slowly piecing this build together. Got the water cooling loop all purchased, but I need a block for this chip. 
Any recommendations? Doesn’t seem to be many. I don’t want to get one that would fit, but wouldn’t fit good because it’s trying to fit so many different sized sockets.

I really love Optimus Waterblocks. Had an EK Evo Supremacy on my 5900x and then swapped to one and saw a drop in temps. Can't 100% remember how much, but want to say in the 3-5c range?

I've had good luck with Heatkiller IV blocks in the past, it's currently what's on my 5900X. They perform pretty well, super easy to install (it should be AM5 compatible since it only uses the stock backplate on AM4), and pretty cheap for the performance it offers. Only downside I have with it is that you have to get either an Intel version or an AMD version, but that sounds like it would be a plus for you.

I would recommend TechN. The best AM4 waterblock in performance terms by a significant margin, cheaper than the comparable EKs, better built and also AM5 compatible.
