The new processors are difficult to cool, but the manufacturer has apparently found a solution to the problem, применением водяного охлаждения.
AMD Ryzen Threadripper processors are approaching larger and larger steps. The new models have an amazing performance, but require adequate cooling and… it's desirable, so it was just water cooling.
While the manufacturer has officially announced two models of the new series - Ryzen Threadripper 1920X was equipped 12 cores / threads 24, а Ryzen Threadripper 1950X 16 cores / threads 32. Processors use a new stand TR4, and their TDP of 180 AT. This is why new processors are difficult to cool.

The network has information, that the manufacturer did not leave this problem without solutions, because complete with processors will be supplied compact water cooling. However, it is not known whether to apply to all and not just the top suggestions.
by the way, should be added, it is not the first time, When the processor is "red" are sold with cooling, because as soon as it was added to the complete set of the previous generation FX series models (above photo FX-8150).
