I'm looking to upgrade from my 3900x to the 5900x and I'm concerned that my cooler may need to be upgraded.

Is the NH-U12S in a push pull config enough cooling for the Ryzen 9 5900x?

they should be about the same thermally. If your 3900x is able to do it, the 5900x should be about the same. Its probably running around 85C under load id imagine and around 75ish in games right?

Good case airflow and some curve optimizer undervolt tweaks and it's plenty.

I'm running everything in a Corsair 275R Airflow case with 3 fans input, 3 fans output.

As for how the 3700x runs right now, I run at around 75 under load, and around 60-70 when gaming.

I'm only cautious because a lot of vendors are saying "needs water cooling" or something of that nature in the listings for the 5900x and 5950x.

I appreciate the feedback. I love my rig and Im super cautious about keeping it balanced and under control temperature wise.
