Corsair Hydro Series H115i

or

Corsair Hydro Series H100i V2

or

CM MasterLiquid Pro 240

or

NZXT

 

ThreadRipper 1950X

Will be base clocked at 4Ghz may be boosted Up To 4.7ghz

Help me in picking

EK custom loop...  For threadripper look for a cooler specifically designed for the larger ihs as it's been shown to have a big effect on thermals, like the enermax liqtech tr4 coolers

[Froody129]

Just FYI... there's no chance of you getting 4.7 GHz on that chip. 4.1 if you're incredibly lucky

[Droidbot]

can't hit 4.7Ghz with TR.. 4.2Ghz-4.3Ghz max.

[rockon5622]

Maybe a multistage phase change system?

[Damascus]

Liqtech tr4 or noctuas threadripper specific towers shred the competition, don't bother with anything else.

Don't get anything that doesn't cover the entire IHS on the 1950X chip. So for AIOs that means Enermax Liqtech TR4 360. For fans grab the Noctua NH-U14S TR4-SP3 140mm. The Noctua NH-U12S TR4-SP3 is good also if space in your case is a premium or you want to be sure you will be able to access the first PCIE slot.

 

Your OCing target is very optimistic... and if it were possible it is likely that none of the above will suffice. They will suffice for what is actually achievable though.

My case is Nzxt S340 it does not support tower air coolers

so water cooling is the option for me moreover  Most/some ppl recommend to have aio liquid cooler for long period of usage at 4.0 ghz especially for 1950x for stable performance 

 

Can you share your TEMPS at idle and full load @ 4.0ghz  with your

current room temperature=>That matters a Lot  

 

[Uzume]

Sorry, my system gets enough abuse from Seti@Home (100% load, 24/7), not going to throw overclocking at it. Sure as sh*t not going to push 4.0GHz.

 

For the OC you are trying to achieve (without a custom loop) you will need the Enermax Liqtech TR4 360. It is the only AIO with a full IHS covering cold plate. The other partial IHS covering AIOs don't come close. The Liqtech 360 is rated to 500w TPD. If you find you need even more thermal capacity then throw away the supplied fans and setup a push/pull config with better quality static fans (noctua or corsair ML).

 

I had the Corsair H115i and I upgraded to the Liqtech 360 and it dropped temps under full load from 70degC to 64degC at stock. The H100i V2 wont reach H115i performance. Meanwhile Coolermaster is a yumcha brand these days and the Master Liquid Pro 240 has quality issues. GamersNexus weren't able to benchmark theirs because the supplied screws were too long and pierced the radiator. Leak city.

 

Having said all this, you have brought your case before choosing your cooling. You won't even be able to choose the best AIO for the 1950X. The NZXT S340 is a compact mid tower and a quick browse on the NZXT site suggests you will be limited to a 280mm radiator, though I haven't built in that case. Perhaps the better question is "what will fit in my case?" and then work out the achievable overclock later.

 

Edit: Enermax have have both 240mm and 280mm versions of their TR4.

the ek block sucks.

if you have to get an aio then yes. 

 

base clock of 4ghz is ok, but for that 4.7ghz boost you going to need ln2  

[awolive]

I have the Enermax 360mm and it works great. What he's referring to is the single core turbo boost to 4.7ghz (4.0ghz base) which is very easily attainable with the cooler.

[Guest]

Another +1 for the Enermax TR4 coolers. DO NOT get any of the Asetek coolers. They simply will not do.

As other have stated, the 1950X WILL not hit 4.7 w/o LN2. I've done 4.125 w/ the 360 variant.

Yeah... I'd like to see proof of 4.7 on a single core w/o LN2.

Got anything that isn't task manager? Task manager is not a reliable source of clock speed. I'm thinking more validated CPU-Z.
