walguin, what you are watching is unboxing of a free system provided to reviewers at announcement time. I have bought and received two Threadrippers (1950X and 2990WX). Each box had ONLY one processor module and nothing else except enough space to send me a small car. Sorry, no freebies for us regular paying customers. Enjoy, John.
Regular paying customers??
TR4 is double the price and half the contents (fan) of any Ryzen7 combo
Nope, more like premium paying customers that is!
From AMD showing which AMD CPUs comes bundled with a CPU Cooler: Processor Cooling Thermal Solutions | CPU Coolers | AMD
Threadripper products do not ship with a cooler due to their high TDPs which require either the CoolerMaster Wraith Ripper air cooler, or a 240mm or 360mm liquid cooler. As both of those are quite expensive, AMD lets users choose their own instead of adding a fixed price to each unit, especially considering some users may already own a $100+ liquid cooler, and some enthusiasts may desire to setup a custom liquid cooling loop. Intel does the same thing with Skylake-X, their competitor to Threadripper.
