Ryzen 3950x does not list a max temperature under specifications - what is the max temp for this processor?

Most other Ryzen 3000 series list 95 C, but it's missing from the 3950x for some reason... just want to know how hot it can run before throttling or deterioration of the processor

It's probably 95C since all the chips are the same silicon.

Can't find any official listing though so you should maybe contact AMD support directly for an answer if your running that hot.

Seems like all 3rd generation Ryzens have a Maximum Operating Temperature of 95C. 

Once the CPU starts reaching or surpassing 95C it will start to throttle to maintain the processor's temperature at 95C or below. If it can't and continues to rise it will automatically shut down the computer to prevent damage.
