6 if you are gaming, else 4.

If your case supports it, and your ram isn't super tall, Thermalright Peerless Assassin is the best, price/performance cooler right now, and plenty for a 5700x3d. I ran a regular 5800x, with a Vetroo V5 myself.

Not knowing all the facts, install the better cooler.
What is the make/model of your case, and what is the fan arrangement?
Do you have a budget?
What are the 4 and 6 pipe coolers you have in mind?

I installed a peerless assassin in another gaming rig and man o man. The cooler is huge and it took over one of the dimm slots. BUT it works great. I installed it on a 5800x3d.

Funny that you mention the burst assassin. I just ordered it this morning. I don't like that the peerless installs over the ram.

The rig I am building will be simple and some gaming will occur.

Thank you for the info.
