>doesn't tighten the heatsink in a star pattern

Too complicate,d Intel makes it easy to install CPUs

That's actually a really nice socket design. I like it.

that tiny af heatsink for a 16 core?

T H I C C

Yeah. For some reason that's what AMD is sending out with their samples.

never saw the carrier before

>HNNNGH IT'S SO BIG
>looks how it slides in so easilly...
>YES BABY TIGHTEN UP THOSE SCREWS
>OH GOD THAT'S TOO MUCH THERMAL PASTE KYAAAAAAAAAAAAA~~

ONII CHAN THE HEATSINK IS TOO BIG MY THREADS ARE GOING TO RIP

...

>not applying thermal paste in an X to cover all the dies

I approve of this post.

yeah, it's so much better to drop the cpu directly onto the socket and fuck some pin if you don't do it perfectly right?

This is fucking garbage
Buy an i9

Oy vey schlomo

This

...

pure sex
i appreciate the porn music too

nice to see that the socket is protected and thermal paste would have a hard time reaching it if you end up putting a little too much

...

noice

...

What the fuck? Are you a fucking ogre that slams the CPU into the socket?

It's a really good heatsink

too much sexual content

...

It's a bit too large, but it is well designed to prevent you from fucking up for sure.

>you walk in
>this music starts playing

UGHHHHHHHHHHH

(You)

Thanks.

>no giant tube of thermal paste and no spreading

wtf is msi doing

Wait a moment.

Since when did desktop AMD CPUs not come with pins?

Threadripper uses the server socket and package like EPYC.

Litterally this

>going for X299 when X399 is available
Haven't you gone to school? Bigger number is better

If you don't overclock, they heatsink is likely all you need, remember amd is relatively cool per chip and this thing is making so much contact with the surface area, I would love to know thermals.

i9 master race

I sort of want this platform just because of the sheer overkill it is in all sort of ways besides single thread performance!

That's a big socket

...

>That tiny ass amount of TIM.
That chip is HUGE, gonna need more than that tiny ass dab.

LGA 2011 comes with a somewhat larger Intel stock heatsink

Oh yeah stick that thick CPU into my socket!

if the heatsink mounts are good, that TIM will spread out over most of the package

I'd personally put two dots of paste, one on the upper half and one on the lower half

subtle

>MSI
>installing a CPU
Fuck. Someone please post the webm where they use a shitton of thermal paste.

It's lga. Who needs help installing lga?

did you watch the video? the installation is different from intel's LGA stuff

4 poo

it's still essentially the same size as previous intel heatsinks and woefully inadequate for anything but stock in a low room temp area, had to get an intel stock for 2011 while waiting for brackets for my main cooler and it was stupidly loud and ran far too hot to do anything serious with

I wonder if this thing has the stupid offset temperature reading like the 1700X and 1800X have.

anyone got some experience with biostar boards? bios support etc

Doesn't matter, lga is lga. Pga is now rightfully dead.

>Pga is now rightfully dead
no, it isn't, AM4 is still here for 4 more years

...

What a fucking great shill post, straight to the point kek

I mean, its an Am1 APU
The things can run passive on that cooler
Dont think you could really fuck it up but this is pretty close

>Star of David screws

Motherfuckers.

Every Racing Sim, JRPG and VN set in a contemporary setting has Eastern Jazz like this.

>intel heatsinks
>woefully inadequate
That's InTel for you...

yeah pretty much, only really suitable for the very low tdp processors that can't overclock (so, i5 and below)

this is so fucking painful to watch

if you use perfect amount of thermal compund it's irrelevant

At least they send a heatsking *cough* intel *cough*

turns out using solder to connect the lid means you can save assloads on coolers.

10/10.

>not delidding the cpu to make perfect contact with your cpu watercooling block

RICED

nice B^)

Get some perspective. The socket is FUCKING HUGE. Look how big it is compared to the DIMM slots. Look how big it is compared to X299 socket. Socketlets BTFO.

this thing is so big and fucking hot i wish it was girthy enough to spread open my asspussy so i could take every little bit of lisa su's masterpiece inside of me each of those CCX's pounding into my prostate milking every last bit of cum out of me right after after that infinity fabric hits a peak score in cinebench unghhh

jokes on you, intel doesn't offer a boxed cooler for their high end CPUs

>intel gives you toothpaste as TIM, no cooler and overheating VRMs
>AMD gives you dies soldered to heatspreader, a decend boxed cooler and a fucking repurposed server socket

god i hate intel so much. Without their anticompetitive bullshit we could've had a nice, fast advancing and consumer friendly market for the last decade. Thank god AMD is back.

To be fair, the area above and below the socket isn't being used for anything so you may as well use it for more pins and more pcie lanes.

...

it's a slightly modified epyc socket. Almost half of the pins are probably dead. Not that it matters, if anything it makes the platform more futureproof, especially considering the large power budget and new AMD chips being strong SoCs that don't need no chipset

this is a blue board user

Would the pea method be enough for such a stupidly large CPU? I just realized I might worry myself if I assembled an X399 system as to whether I applied too much thermal paste, not enough, or if it actually covered the whole IHS.

I'd probably go with 4 peas around where the CPU dies are
or just the X method

>Not using standard Philips screws

The X method netted the best results for my 2600k.
Spreads out well and gets the corners.

In terms of temperatures or just spread?
I didn't notice any measureable differences between different methods on my 2500K.

Torx is superior

>using standard Philips screws
Dumb frogposter.

Threadripper is a 4-die part with 2 dies disabled.
It's only twice the heat production of Ryzen, and Ryzen can be cooled with a small tower cooler with no heatpipes.

That cooler is a lot bigger than the 125W coolers provided with the FX line, and has MASSIVE heatpipes.

Since 2017

Torx lets you get lower profile screws. Phillips (or the superior JIS) need quite a deep head on the screw, which wouldn't work in that mechanism.

You can't have too much. Just use an X or Ж shape.

>people RMAing boards because they can't install a new CPU after stripping the phillips head screws with their awesome screwdrivers made from chinese pig iron
i can see why they went for torx

Since 2010.

well, AM4 still uses PGA, only exyc and threadripper come with LGA

>In terms of temperatures or just spread?
Was 4C lower at load compared to the pea method.
I have a custom water block on it through.

>being THIS mad
wew

Oh, sorry, my bad.

Socket F came out in 2006.

Good goy

It's snazzy music

AMD's server sockets have been using the LGA style for years now.
