AMD Ryzen Threadripper 2990WX Temp Bug ?
Hey guys , im dont get it , when ever i build something with the Threadripper 2990WX and using 2x GPU's in a custom watter loop , it seems that the CPU does not get cooled by the system , even when filling up the collant i dont se it running trough the cpu watter block.

Is this a bug or do i do someting wrong.

The thing is , so far i remove a second GPU and use only a single one , it seems all okey after that.

No one sayed even a word similar to my situation , the Threadripper 2990WX just overheats when i use a custom loop to cool it , but its does not cool the CPU apsolutelly nothing when i use two GPU's on the same loop , but when i use it with a single GPU , no problems with the CPU.

Radiators for this loop to cool down the Threadripper 2990WX + 2x is running on 2x360mm radiator and 1x120mm , that should do nice the job , but its buging me out when i use 2 GPU's , so far i plug a second GPU to the motherboard , the loop simply ignores to go trought the CPU plate and does not cool it down. Its like nothing is on the CPU.

Well , would be it not more easy to tell the 2990WX is curently bugged ? I missed this post as there are many of them about 2990WX.

Anyway , thanks.

They're insanely hot chips even in real life. And even in real life if you looped a 2990WX in with a pair of 1080 Ti's, and then overclocked the 1080 Ti's, you would have a very difficult time designing a custom loop to keep both parts cool without throttling, even stock without overclocking the cpu. They're just hot parts. They're not bugged, just make a ton of heat. They're 32 cores with SMT for pete's sake. It's the highest physical core-count single "consumer" (read as non-server) CPU that's ever existed to date in the history of computers.

Perhaps a bank of five 560mm (4x140mm) rads? Heck, at that point, we might as well just buy a high end Koyorad radiator for a car. :steamhappy:
