Well, current Intel and AMD 16 core cpus produce more than 150 Watt thermal power under load.
Therefore some people prefer an all in one water cooling solution, e.g.

Right. With that many cores I would do that.
You do this cooling solution and will be very disappointed.

If setup correctly the amd 16 core will score over 8000 on cinebench r20. I score 8063. And this is the best score of any CPU under $1000. The 9900k scores around 5000.

But you have use the correct AIO. Or you will be stuck with stock speed of about 6600.
What is AIO?
It stands for All in one liquid cooler.

If you want the 16 core AMD. This is the only AIO cooler designed for the 16 core AMD.

If you are waiting for the Ryzen 3000 in 16 core. You will be waiting a almost a year. If AMD releases a 16 core sku of the Ryzen 3000. It will not be released until Threadripper 3000 are launch at the end of the year. The other lower core count Ryzen 3000 SKUs will be lauched first.

Thanks. Nice picture. I wont be ready for a new computer for 2-3 years. Yes, I will use powerful cooling when the time comes.
