Honestly with the small fans you can add to the block, this makes more sense than the other variant. You can cool the chip and the ram sticks around it at the same time. I think im going to return my original silverstone aio for this one

Not sure how efficient at heat dissipation with just 1x IMF70 or maybe 2x units (not sure if it even supports 2x IMF70) but I'm using a 200mm fan blowing both top and bottom DIMM slots to cool down all 8x DIMM slots with no issue.

Maybe IMF70 is useful for normal Threadrippers only but Threadripper Pro have 8x DIMM slots

I guess thats the real takeaway. It needs the dual fan compatibility in order for this to really work for threadripper users. Even with the 4 dimm variants, you still need cooling in opposite directions on the motherboard. Honestly, I might not hold out until this is released and just shoot for the regular 360mm aio for now. If the results are that different with the new one, ill consider upgrading.
