Question Threadripper 1950x on stock speeds low temps. Will more fans make it better?

SPECS
PC: 1950X THREADRIPPER
CASE: Phanteks Pro M Tempered Glass
MOBO: MSI Pro Carbon
AIO Cooler: h100i V2
OS: Windows 10
GPU: GTX 1080 TI
RAM: Corsair set to 3200mhz
PSU: Corsair RMx Series RM850X

So I have a 1950x Threadripper currently idle and it's usually 31-36C. On load through CINEBENCH it would peak around 63C after 3 attempts (one attempt after the other). Currently I'm only running the processor at 3.4ghz because I don't feel the need for anything higher. At the moment I have an h100i V2 with 2 fans at the front of the case blowing into the radiator, 1 140mm that maxes out around 1200rpm and another 140mm at the rear both in exhaust making a total of 4 fans. Now my questions are...

1. How low should I expect temps to be on this Threadripper if I applied more fans?
2. I was looking to add Noctua Fans in my case. Adding 1 more 140MM to replace on the back and the one there currently I'd move to the top. Then add 2 120mm to the other side of the radiator on my H100i V2 to make it a push pull configuration. I live in California and it's really nice having cold weather as of now but I'm preparing more for the future. Is it an overkill to add more fans if I'm getting temps such as these already? I edit 4k videos through Premiere (with some After Effects) and occasionally some gaming/stream on this one setup.
3. Based on my situation, which NOCTUA fans and how many fans do you recommend putting in my setup? I'm a noob when it comes to air pressure and purposes to these fans. I just know that I want my setup to be cool as possible so i typically just go based on highest RPM fans and I want them quiet as possible. I just learned the difference in PWM and DC... I was looking at NF-F12, NF-A14 and NF-A15 (not sure the major differences between them all).
4. Should I ever worry about all these fans taking up too much power based on my PSU?

I don't plan on taking out my stock case fans or the ones on the h100i v2 because they run pretty decent RPMs (unless someone convinces me otherwise). If Noctua fans weren't so expensive I'd just replace every fan and put all of them in there because I can care less how ugly they are lol.

Any help and opinions is appreciated! TEACH ME!

I recommend you run RealBench to check for good real world temperatures, run it for around 30 minutes.

A Push/Pull config isn't a bad idea, but they'll only improve your temps by around 2-3C.

If you still have temps that max out below 70C, you really don't need any more fans.

Fans take very little wattage, so don't worry about it. Especially since your PSU is very high quality.

PWM is better for fans, it gives you more control. But if you have to go DC, it isn't a huge deal.

Don't worry too much about the differences between fans, generally most of them are good. From the Noctua's, Silent Wings 3, Corsair ML fans, they are all pretty good.

Going with negative air pressure yields best cooling performance.

Corsair MagLevs are the best when it comes to longevity, they will last forever. If you want something a bit cheaper but good, I recommend Silent Wings 3 or Silent Wings 2 fans. (There are other good fans on the market, but I don't know them off the top of my head.)

As long as you don't have fans re-circulating hot air in a closed loop, there is little benefit to adding more fans beyond what is necessary to move enough air to keep temperatures reasonable. The rate of heat transfer from heatsinks or radiator to air is proportional to the difference in temperature so the smaller the temperature difference, the slower heat transfers to air. You'd likely get a much larger improvement from using a liquid cooler with higher pump flow to better equalize temperature across the entire cooling loop (reduce the temperature difference between the CPU plate and radiator so heat can be transferred to air faster) than extra fans.

UGHHH. So I ordered 3 fans like i mentioned. 1 exhaust for the back and 2 for my radiator in pull. As i install them i noticed the CPU FAN is not being detected which is my AIO. I open the front of the case and its got the fans running full speed. I check temps and its slowly rised from 30 to 65 and so on.. like a ticking time bomb. I touch the hose of my h100i v2 and neither of them are getting hot. I believe one is meant to be hot while the other is not? The LED is on for the corsair, the CPU FAN is being undetected but power is still going to the fans, and neither hose is warming up. I think its safe to say my AIO is dead? 🙁

Not necessarily hot and cold, more like hot/warm and not-so-hot/warm. If neither is warming up but the CPU block is getting hot, then you have no flow for some reason. Can be a dead/stuck pump, a stalled pump or no coolant.

I got fed up trying to see what else I could do to fix the problem and went to sleep. This morning I tried to at least get to the desktop (couldve been bad) and I just wanted to see if I can at least turn on corsair link to see if the pump was at least reading that USB connected to the pump. I get to the desktop, 80+ CELSIUS, fans are at 100percent rpm and right next to it I see the pump at 0rpm. What I learned is that the bios reads the rpm of the pump and not the 2 fans connected through the fan splitters (i think) because the fans were running 100percent even prior to reaching the desktop BUT the fan header I have the splitter connected to wasnt being read in Bios. Anyways, it is sad that its pretty much dead but yeah im done with aio coolers lol. I was going to draw a poll for which cooler but I just went noctua uh14s tr4 model. Anyone know if pump failures is a good enough reason for a warranty? Ive had it since Aug 2017 and I believe i read on an Amazon review its 5 year warranty? I could be wrong.
