ComputerBase tested the whole Noctua TR4 line-up.
A long story short: They suck (barely sufficient at stock).
They kept a stock 1950X 0.2 - 4.9 degree C below the rated tDieMax (68 degree C).

The whole launch of Threadripper has been pretty disgraceful.
It's been over three weeks since the launch and you can't even purchase a proper cooler for the CPU.
The only thing you can get is one of the 20+ Asetek AIO variants, or one of the few water blocks which require a custom loop.
Enermax Liqtech TR4 AIOs were initially supposed to become available in the beginning of september, however now the european retailers have a new ETA set to the end of october.
