AMD ThreadRipper. Are you READY?

So how soon can we expect the local distro to start bring in TR, their mobos and air coolers? I don't really want to risk about having water leak in the system. If there's no news I guess I will take my chance overseas

They are already on pre order since beginning of this week.

And people whom buys TR wont run it on air cool. Besides, TR comes with a asetek cooler mounting plate for any existing asetek based cooler to be mounted on.

Yes but better apply proper amounts of thermal paste. The Asetek mounts barely cover half the dies.

Most professional users of Threadripper would choose aircooling over watercooling, not because of lower temps, but for reduced downtime during any cooling hardware failures, and less things to go wrong.

I wish to buy but my wallet isn't really for it
