I'm having a custom workstation PC built for 3D rendering with the Threadripper 5975WX and I'm yoyyoing between aircooling and AIO cooler. My original quote had the Corsair iCUE H150i ELITE but since doing some research it seems the heat spreader doesn't cover the entire CPU..

Tech Notice YouTube ((This video) built a similar machine with the Noctua Nh-U14s so now I'm thinking this may be the best option?

My main concern is keeping temps down to reduce throttling during long render times and there's very few products made to suit the Threadrippers.

What do you think? Is there anything else out there?
 
If you want a cooler specifically for TR you're basically stuck with Noctua's NH-U14S TR4-SP3 or NH-U9 TR4-SP3, IceGiant's ProSiphon Elite, Cooler Master's MasterAir MA621P TR4 Edition, Enermax's LiqTech TR4 (not going to link as they've had extensive problems with clogging and I don't know if it has ever been resolved), or a custom water block (EK and AlphaCool have them for sure likely are others available).
