Best LGA 2066 and TR4 CPU Coolers in 2024 [Air & Liquid]

TR4 Socket is the latest CPU Socket from AMD for its AMD Ryzen Threadripper processors. AMD Ryzen Threadripper is the high-end desktop processor series and they are the first processors from AMD to feature a pinless design and have an LGA Socket Type. These are huge, power-hungry, and very powerful processors and due to this, they have rendered many popular current-generation CPU coolers useless. Even most of the AM4 Socket compatible CPU coolers won’t be able to fit the AMD Ryzen Threadripper processors.

This is a bit of a headache for gamers or users who want to build a high-performance PC using these processors. However, some of the companies have launched their new TR4 CPU coolers and some of them made some adjustments by releasing new TR4 mounting kits to fit these TR4 socket processors. The availability of these coolers is a bit of concern as some of the proposed TR4 Socket coolers have not come to market as of now. The same is the case with the Intel LGA 2066 Socket as most of the coolers are not compatible with this new Socket from Intel. Some of the popular Intel Core X-series Processors include Intel Core i9-7900X, Intel Core i9-7920X, Intel Core i7-7820X, Intel Core i7-7800X, Intel Core i7-7740X, and Intel Core i5-7640X

So, in this post, I am going to list down the best LGA 2066 and TR4 Socket CPU coolers (air/water or liquid) for use with the Intel Core-X series and AMD Ryzen Threadripper or TR4 Socket processors. All the below-mentioned CPU coolers fully support the 180W Ryzen Threadripper processors.

Note: Socket TR4 or sTR4 is a short form for Socket Threadripper 4 and is also known as Socket SP3r2. The number of pins or contacts in Socket TR4 is 4096. You must also know that Ryzen Threadripper Processors require an AMD X399 Chipset Motherboard. On the other hand, LGA 2066 Socket is also called Socket R4 and it supports Intel X299 chipset motherboards.

Best Air CPU Coolers for TR4 and LGA-2066 Socket

Here are the best air CPU coolers for Intel LGA-2066 and AMD TR4 Sockets for Intel Core-X series and AMD Ryzen Threadripper processors.

Noctua NH-U14S TR4-SP3 CPU Cooler

[Great Performance, Dual Fan Ready, Full TR4 IHS Coverage]

This is a budget CPU Cooler from Noctua, which is a very reputed hardware company and is known for its high-quality case fans and CPU coolers. This CPU cooler is made especially for AMD high-end processors and it supports only Socket TR4 and Socket SP3.  This TR4 CPU cooler comes with a 140mm fan with Noctua’sSSO2 bearing. The fan is very quiet in operation and performs very well by keeping the temperatures down to safe levels.

The heatsink consists of a copper base and 6-heat pipes for better dissipation of heat. The cooler is a bit taller at 165mm in height, so I recommend you to get a good full tower case if you plan on using this cooler. Overall it is a great affordable Air CPU cooler for AMD Ryzen Threadripper processors that you can trust without having any second thought.

If the cooler height is a bit of concern to you then you can get its smaller models which are Noctua NH-U9 TR4-SP3 and NH-U12S TR4-SP3. Noctua NH-U9 TR4-SP3 comes with a 92mm fan and has a height of 125mm, and NoctuaNH-U12S TR4-SP3 comes with a 120mm fan and has a height of 158mm.

P.S. – If you want a compact TR4 cooler from Noctua then you can go for Noctua NH-U9 TR4-SP3 CPU Cooler that comes with dual 92mm fans. The height of this TR4 cooler is only 125mm which makes it a perfect choice for use in compact Threadripper builds or 3U and 4U server chassis. However, this cooler is not meant for overclocking and is best for use with stock frequencies only.

Thermalright Silver Arrow TR4 CPU Cooler

[Amazing Performance, Good RAM Clearance, Full IHS Coverage]

Thermalright Silver Arrow TR4 is a twin tower CPU cooler for AMD TR4 Socket processors. It can also work with AM4 socket Ryzen CPUs, but you have to order the Socket AM4 bracket separately. This is unarguably the best TR4 socket CPU cooler and can even beat TR4 CPU Coolers from bigger names like Noctua. It comes with dual heatsinks with eight copper heatpipes and a copper base plate with full TR4 IHS coverage. The 140mm fan (TY 143 fan) is placed between the two heatsinks that come with ball bearing and spins at speed of 600 – 2500 RPM. At full speed, it is a noisy performer with a maximum noise level rating of 45dBA.

The performance of this TR4 CPU Cooler is excellent and it can run your top-of-the-line Ryzen Threadripper processor at full Precision Boost Overdrive (PBO) like a boss. It can support CPUs having up to 320W TDP and is as good as the high-end AIO Liquid CPU Coolers. Due to its offset heatsink design, it also allows a good amount of clearance for tall RAM. However, it is a bit on the longer side and may interfere with your video card in the first PCIe slot for some motherboards. The CPU cooler stands at 163mm tall and can fit in most of the mid-tower and full-tower cases. The installation is a little bit cumbersome, but you can get through it after viewing the well-detailed installation manual or watching the installation video on its website. The CPU Cooler is very much affordable and does not dig a hole in your pocket. Highly Recommended by me.

ENERMAX LIQTECH TR4 II 360 is unarguably the best TR4 CPU Cooler that you can get for your high-performance AMD Ryzen Threadripper processor. This AIO CPU Cooler has 100% sTR4 IHS Coverage, which means it covers the whole IHS (Integrated Heat Spreader) of the Threadripper processor for maximum heat transfer and better cooling. It comes with a 360mm Radiator and three 120mm fans that spin at speed of 500 – 2300 RPM. It is a big CPU cooler and can support up to 500W+ TDP CPUs. The cooler also features addressable RGB lighting on the water block that can be controlled either by using the included RGB control box or by the 5V ARGB motherboard header using RGB software that includes Asus Aura Sync, MSI RGB Mystic Light Sync, Gigabyte RGB Fusion, etc.

The performance of this TR4 CPU Cooler is amazing as it keeps the CPU temperature well below the recommended range even at full load. You can also perform a good amount of overclocking and can get better performance from your Threadripper CPU without having to worry about overheating. The cooler also features a patented SCT (Shunt-Channel-Technology) design that enables the cold plate to eliminate the “Boundary Layer” to increase coolant flow momentum and accelerate heat transfer performance. The SCT also lets heated and non-heated coolant swap the channel and increase the utilization rate. The tubes of this AIO cooler are sleeved for providing extra protection from abrasion or accidental cuts. Highly Recommended by me.

Buy ENERMAX LIQTECH TR4 II 360 CPU Cooler

Important Note: It is generally not a good idea to use regular CPU coolers with a round base on Ryzen Threadripper processors (with a big rectangular Integrated Heat Spreader (IHS)), because they do not cover the entire IHS, which leads to not-so-good cooling performance. So, it is always advisable to use CPU Coolers that are designed especially for Threadripper CPUs as they cover the entire IHS area, and provides much better performance. These CPU Coolers include Noctua NH-U14S TR4-SP3, Deepcool Fryzen, ENERMAX LIQTECH TR4 II 360.
