Noctua air cooler performs better than most AIO TR4 solutions.

EDIT: https://www.amazon.com/Noctua-NH-U14S-TR4-SP3-Premium-Grade-Cooler/dp/B074DX2SX7

There's also the "Wraithripper" and a few others... I only really trust Noctua for air solutions though.

edit2:

Here's a slightly older video comparing some of the NZXT AIO solutions vs Noctua. Spoiler, Noctua wins.

The H90 is probably insufficient for ThreadRipper. It could handle the heat, but not at the happiest of temperatures.

ThreadRipper CPUs, FWIW, come with an Asetek mounting kit.

Instead of an AIO, though, you might consider a natively supported TR4 Noctua heatsink such as this.

It is strongly recommended you buy a cooling system with a TR4 backplate. You don't have to. We just recommend it.

There are air coolers AND water coolers with a TR4 backplate.

Both are fantastic.

Buy a large tower Cooler like the Noctua NH-U14S TR4 or a a 280mm liquid cooler like this, which will be quieter and maybe allow a bit more of an overclock.

Neither option will throttle or lower lifespan, both are very adequate at cooling it.

That enermax AIO thing. I just ordered https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B074DX2SX7

Must be a different model. Try this

This is their lineup , the U14S is their best for TR4. You might be able to change out the fans if you wanted.

Edited: Added the lineup.

This would be the answer to your prayers

The only other top tier air cooler is the Arctic 33 is not even released to market!

I found this over at amazon, but they don't even have it in fuckin' stock!

These fuckin' assholes release it to market yet don't even make sure that they stock main online retailers with their products!...This is a rant, and I'm obviously irritated at the impossibility of actually purchasing parts for a new build, so do not expect any love in this post!

Here is a few choices that are available on Amazon in NA. If you need another region lmk.

Best air cooler:

You listed the prices yourself as +150 USD for the cpu, then -100 for the motherboard. A whole 50 USD delta.

With 50 dollars you should now get a system that's significantly faster unless memory bandwidth bottle necks, while at the same time consuming less energy and not having to deal with numa software issues. I would gladly pay 50 dollars to have a platform that's much more widely deployed and supported, more modern and even consumes less energy making less noise heat and noise.

But your comparison isn't even fair: the 3900X will ship with a thermal solution, where as the 1920X does not.^1 There goes your 50 dollar delta. In fact a noctua NH-U14S is 80 dollars on amazon and newegg.^(2, 3) and thus you are 30 dollars on negative now.

Let's do some math here. Let's say the power supply is 85% efficient and the VRM is 90%. You start from having wasted 30 dollars. The power consumption delta is 75W by the CPU. 75 divided by 0.9, is 83.333... for VRM, and divide that by 0.85 for AC. Now that's about 98 watts.

A day it will be 2353 watt hours. 2.35 Kilowatt hours. A year, about 859 Kilowatt hours. Kilowatt hour of electricity in US costs 13.26 cents according to eia.^4 I'm not sure if this even includes transmission costs and possible taxes. In most other developed countries it's more than that.

That's 114 dollars a year. Year one you will be down 30+114, 144 dollars. After year three, it's 372 dollars. Five years? 630 dollars.

Now maybe you only stress your computer a third of the time. Fine, it's still 230 dollars after five years when not even taking into account the difference in idle power consumption.

Realistically these are all ballpark estimates, and I'm sure not accurate. I'm not an expert and there's no reviews out. But a simple fact remains: the more you use this hedt system which you don't need for the actual features it offers (pci-e lanes and memory bandwidth) for the cost previously mentioned, the more money you lose.

All I can think of is that you could probably save some money with a TR4 cooler from Noctua instead of that Corsair AIO. Like this one: https://www.amazon.com/Noctua-NH-U14S-TR4-SP3-Premium-Grade-Cooler/dp/B074DX2SX7

How sad to get such hardware through such a bad event :-(

You got a lot of good advice already, but no build.

As was said, for 128GB ram you need a workstation. The maximum of regular mainboard boards (like them with Z370 chipset on Intel side or B350/X370 on AMD) is 64 GB. A fitting build is thus a Threadripper build:

Type|Item|Price: ----|:----|:----
CPU | AMD Ryzen Threadripper 1920X | $745.01 @ Amazon.com
Motherboard | ASRock X399 Taichi | $299.99 @ newegg
Storage | Toshiba DT01ACA300 3TB 64MB 7.200rpm SATA600 (3 TB) | $77.45 @ superbiiz
SSD | Samsung 960 EVO NVMe Solid State Drive (250 GB) | $124.99 @ Amazon.com
Case | Carbide Series 300R Compact PC Gaming | $79.99 @ Amazon.com
Power Supply | EVGA SuperNOVA G3 (650 W) | $89.99 @ Amazon.com
| Total | $1420.41

This still misses an TR4 cooler (was missing in the list), like https://www.amazon.com/Noctua-NH-U14S-TR4-SP3-premium-grade-cooler/dp/B074DX2SX7/ or https://www.amazon.com/Enermax-Exclusive-Threadripper-Technology-ELC-LTTR360-TBP/dp/B074ZLQZG1. Case, SSD, HDD, psu. that is all changeable - the core of this is the X399 mainboard to support the ram.

If you can stand using only one of those ramkits you could also get a regular Ryzen build. 64GB is the maximum capacity there. It would be cheaper:

It is also more suited for gaming, less compatibility problems.
