TR4 air coolers?

[Lapsio]

So I took a look at TR4 Noctua coolers and what the hell they all look like some sort of joke. I expected NH-D15 to be the first cooler that should be supported for TR4 but it seems Noctua didn't share my point of view so...

 

Are there any more serious TR4 air coolers? I'm looking for workstation/server cooling so I'm afraid AIO is not for me for many reasons most serious one being weak long-term load performance and space for rad. I have neither space nor funds for custom loop.

 

I use Fractal Define R5 with 10 HDDs using two 5" adapters

Why it's not joke? It's just some single tower. I use NH-D15 for not overclocked 8 years old i7-2600k and hit 70 deg after few hours of 100% load ._.

So what it's a single tower? Get a second fan, it will dissipate more than enough heat for a threadripper server/workstation.

Yeah but... Well TR2 is gonna have XFR2 so technically there's no such thing as dicipating "enough" heat because it's gonna clock as high as thermal solution allows for right? Without manual overclocking?

You mean threadripper 2.0? This isn't intel, components don't increase average temps by 20C each generation.

so dont crank it to the maximum. While Zen+ CPUs have high heat output when cranked to their 4.2GHz wall, it's not when sitting at 4GHz with much lower voltage.

You'll be fine with a $80 noctua U14s
