NH-U9 TR4-SP3
That's a look at the Threadripper 1950X with Noctua NH-U9 TR4-SP3 under a variety of different workloads. The average temperature was 44.9°C with a peak of 66.25°C. That's not bad for air cooling with a 180 Watt CPU. Though some Linux users have said the k10temp Zen CPU temperature reporting is lower than what is found from the BIOS or under Windows. But anyhow, I haven't run into any thermal throttling or any thermal-related issues in the few weeks of using the NH-U9 TR4-SP3 heatsink.
"The dual 92mm fans are relatively quiet, the NH-U9 TR4-SP3 squeezes into 4U height requirements, and it's all-around been working out well on my Threadripper Linux system." (Michael Larabel, Phoronix.com)
