We are receiving our Threadripper 5995wx Dell workstation next week. The CPU is 280 watts, air cooled. I am very interested to see the thermals/noise when pushed to 100%, 24/7.

I will be happy to post that info when I have it. 

Yes, so would I.  I'm considering purchasing a TR 5975WX, though I'll water cool it, but I would be very interested in seeing the temps of your 5995WX air cooled @ 100% BOINC, 24/7.

If possible, could you post a picture showing what program your using to get temps?  Also, a picture of the actual CPU cooling fan that Dell is using?  I imagine it is a server setup with a LOUD fan.

Thanks for admitting so.

No... I don't think so... it's an American's way of politely saying "I'm through discussing this with you".  He's not admitting anything to you.

I will have a good amount of data to post related to the new TR Pro line. We have one system with the 5995wx coming this next week and then two additional systems with TR 5965wx (24 core) arriving shortly after (still in production). Here are the full specs of these systems: 

One of these: 

AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 5995WX (256 MB cache, 64 cores, 128 threads, 2.7GHz to 4.5GHz, 280 W)
Precision 7865 Tower 1350W Chassis
128GB 8x16GB DDR4 3200MHz RDIMM ECC
NVIDIA RTX A4500 (will be adding a second A4500 I have on hand as well)
2TB, M.2, PCIe NVMe, SSD, Class 40

Then, two of these: 

AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO 5965WX (128 MB cache, 24 cores, 48 threads, 3.8GHz to 4.5GHz, 280 W)
Precision 7865 Tower 1350W Chassis
64GB 8x8GB DDR4 3200MHz RDIMM ECC 
NVIDIA RTX A4500
2TB, M.2, PCIe NVMe, SSD, Class 40

I use HWMonitor for the systems for temps/voltage/power monitoring. 

I can definitely take a bunch of pictures- Dell has their standard photos/diagrams that they released but nothing that great. You are right about noise- I have to be careful because these are all in my classroom. Because of this, I went with the new Dell Precision 7865, which are tower systems. We already have a bunch of Precision tower systems and they are rock-solid and relatively quiet (well, if I do not manually change the fan speeds in the bios, which I pretty much always do. I do not love their cooling curves). 

Excited to get these into the student's hands for what they use the systems for, and excited to allow them to crunch E@H and WCG when not being used by students.

Yeah well Americans are infamous for many things.  "Now what you're gonna wanna do next is.... confuse terrorist with tourist, in the Myrrh".  (Only true English speakers will understand that)

"Through discussing" means he can't answer my difficult questions.

There’s nothing difficult

There’s nothing difficult about your questions. I just stopped entertaining mediocrity. 
 

You just refuse to accept the answers since you can’t understand the reality that the temperature of a 2sq-unit surface dissipating X watts is less than a 1sq unit surface dissipating the same X watts. 
 

plus this is all wildly off-topic, which I know you revel in. Cue your reply exclaiming how you can say whatever you want wherever you want, have a normal conversation, blah blah blah, you’ve said it all before in every thread.

Well said, Ian! Plus,

Well said, Ian!

Plus, whatever makes Pete think that EVERYTHING he says has to be EXACTLY correct and he can never be wrong or accept that someone else could be right?

Enough said!

There is no other reason to cease discussion.

No, I clearly explained to you it divides the resistance to heat flow by 4, but since that resistance is minute compared to the resistances elsewhere in the system, it can be ignored.

The art of conversation involves straying off the path and discussing interesting things.  Anyway we are still discussing how to make good computers, which is required for this project.
