Review: AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2920X
How does a 12 core processor with 24 threads sound at a price of 649 USD? Yeah, it might be a mighty compelling product. AMD is back at it again in their Core wars as they release the Threadripper Gen2 based 2920X with a base clock of 3.5 GHz and Turbo to 4.3 GHz, this is a seriously threading processor.

i was burned with the EK (1st version) waterblock...which i still have...and my issues were luckily cleared up on this forum because until then i thought i'd lost out on the silicon lottery (w/high temps).
i've been told that EK has since cleaned up the issues...which is good as i really, really want to buy the EK monoblock (TR4 Asrock) especially as i've gone mATX (Taichi)...but as you know the price is steep and i'm still digesting the hit from 3x M.2 (nvme) 1tb.
Yes, I was really impressed how cool can 2950x run even with Noctua air cooler @ low RPM, was expecting that cooler get hot rather quickly but instead it got just warm. But still cant wait for water block delivery as its nearly incompatible with waterblocks on GPU, being in way for fittings outlet. Had to use 3rd PCIe slot to barely fit it in.

I was disappointed by many issues with AM4 monoblock for C6H, bad contact with VRM, high CPU temps, nickel plating flaking off....
I bought MSI MEG x399 Creation for which EK already confirmed that they wont be making mono-block and this board does not even need it.
Anyway this was 3rd time i got issues with EK WB so... I am getting Watercool Heatkiller 4 Pro which is together with XSPC Raystorm Neo, best block you can buy.

You forgot to compare it to the 1920X.
