Testing water blocks takes time and you have to take into account ambient temps, thermal paste application, and plenty of repetition. Here I go over my findings and final thoughts of the new Optimus Threadripper 3 Water Block that costs nearly twice as much as the EK-Velocity sTR4 D-RGB Nickel + Plexi Water Block.

About Optimus Absolute Threadripper 3 CPU Block

The new best Threadripper water block has arrived. The Optimus Absolute Threadripper 3+ is made for Threadripper 3's massive core count and thermal requirements. AMD Threadripper 3 combines four of their consumer CPUs for a single massive CPU with up to 64 cores. This groundbreaking CPU needs a truly next-gen cooler to match.

Featuring our revolutionary Gen2 XL cold plate design with 225 micro fins (preliminary), the Absolute Threadripper 3+ micro fins provide over 3.5X the surface area of the next top performing Threadripper waterblock. With a surface area of ~424 cm^2 (~66 in^2) vs ~119 cm^2 (~18.4 in^2), the Optimus Gen2 XL cold plate's total area is nearly the size of an mATX motherboard.

Moreover, where typical blocks strive to simply cover the dies with fins, we provide more than 100% IHS coverage (the metal lid on top of the CPU), allowing fluid cooling across the entire CPU surface area, not just the much smaller die area. Full IHS coverage is the real standard by which Threadripper blocks should be measured, not just die coverage.

Additionally, we use the exact same fin design as our world's best Signature and Foundation blocks. Some Threadripper blocks enlarge and expand the fins to cover the dies, rather than adding more fins. This was done to save time and cost, it simply doesn't provide the needed cooling for the latest gen Threadripper.

The Absolute block's extreme coverage design allows the Absolute Threadripper 3+ to handle the thermal requirements of not just 64 cores, but 64 overclocked cores. With the Absolute block, you're able to achieve lower temps for higher overclocks previously impossible with traditional cooling platforms.

Finally, the Optimus Absolute Threadripper 3+ block uses a unique monolithic design where the central cast acrylic block is sandwiched between a massive billet aluminum housing and the full size copper cold plate. This design ensures complete pressure across the entire IHS with zero flex so thermal paste spread is uniform and precise. Plus, this design eliminates acrylic screw threads like all Optimus products, ensuring zero acrylic cracking potential.

About EK-Velocity sTR4 D-RGB - Nickel + Plexi

EK-Velocity sTR4 is the 3rd generation of CPU water blocks that are tailor-made for AMD® Ryzen™ Threadripper™ processors. They come with a pre-assembled, error-preventing mounting mechanism. The primary goal in designing the new EK-Velocity sTR4 water block was to cover the entire IHS of HEDT AMD® Ryzen Threadripper processors and to improve performance over the previous generation of sTR4 water blocks.

The top is made from CNC machined glass-like Acrylic material. Every EK-Velocity sTR4 water block comes with a precisely machined copper base (sometimes referred to as ‘cold plate’) which is made from purest copper available on the market and is treated with nickel electroplating.

EK-Velocity sTR4 comes with a pre-assembled error-preventing mounting mechanism that is installed directly onto the SocketTR4 mounting holes. The result is a perfect installation which results in optimal performance every time. This also means the water block is out of the box compatible with AMD’s server type Socket SP3 motherboards. With such a mounting solution, the user does not need to remove the motherboard from the case and so has a hassle-free installation procedure of the new CPU.

This product is compatible with popular RGB sync technologies from all major motherboard manufacturers. The arrow marking on the 3-pin LED connector is to be aligned with the +5V marking on the A-RGB(D_RGB) header. You can easily remove the LED strip cover which is mounted with two screws to replace the LED strip with some other type of LED strip.
