Noctua at Computex 2017exposure made it clear that the Austrian company is developing new versions of its popular radiators for the AMD EPYC and Ryzen Threadripper processors, which differ from their predecessors with the increased footprint. For sufficiently large processors, which contain several crystals on one substrate, this is an important condition for the efficiency of the cooling system.
Colleagues from PC Games Hardware website at Noctua stand at the last Computex show found that not all cooling system manufacturers have received samples of the Ryzen Threadripper processors from AMD in advance, and therefore can only limit the release of modified fasteners for existing processor coolers. The area of the sole remains unchanged, and this can negatively affect the effectiveness of such solutions.
In addition, the location of the mounting holes in the vicinity of the Socket TR4 processor socket forms an imaginary rectangle, so coolers for the respective processors can not be deployed on the motherboard at the user's will. The orientation of the fans will be fixed. Related Products :
