.........So should be easy to see why there could be some less than optimal cooling performances with chiplet design Zen2....

Also you need to consider that cheaper coolers using direct contact heatpipies such as the Brocken are potentially sub optimal for the off centre chiplet design of Ryzen 3000s. The squished copper heatpipes are going to be eliptical / oval so won't be making full contact with each other to transfer heat accross all of the pipes unlike the more expensive coolers that use a full copper (nickel coated) heat plate for this purpose.

And if wanting the absolutely best cooling might want to to avoid more convex base coolers.

And ones that use direct contact heatpipes.

Actually solid base is both advantage and disadvantage.
While it spreads heat more (than heatspreader) copper is still lot worser heat conductor than heatpipe:
(hence "vapor chambers" in extreme heat density cooling solutions)

So for as long as heat is spread for many enough heatpipes there shouldn't be problem from that.
And in single tower cooler heatpipe orientation is such that different Zen2 CCDs are under different heatpipes.
Intel's monolithic centered die would be more likely to suffer from that too concentrated heat source and direct contact heatpipe coolers seem to be doing nicely with them.
(though too concave CPU's heatspreader is of course problem for always flat base of direct contact heatpipe cooler)
 
I don't think you are getting what I am saying and I don't want to waste my time flogging a dead horse. The OP has made their decision and I am certain they will be more than happy with their new cooler :cool:

arriving today, so will keep you all updated,thank all for the input.
im happy with my decision to buy this cooler and for all the advice i got thanks .
 
it was easy, in so far you need to plan it..see how things fit to gether..rember the cable that fits to the motheboard cpu fan forgot to do this took some time to place it on motherboard as i had little room ....other than that was easy.

That's good to hear I take it you fitted it In the case and didn't remove the board

yes only removed the gpu,conecting the middle fan needs some thought.. but easy.

Yes that's the bit that looked tricky I've fitted big coolers before but that middle fan looks real tricky glad its sorted your temps out and looks real nice thanks for answering my questions mate much appreciated
