The processor is extremely powerful, a pure rocket (after all, that's what you expect from a high end like this).
However, I only recommend it if you have an air-conditioner!
For my part I installed a Noctua NH-U12A Chromax Black with Krynaut and it tends to have trouble cooling down depending on its use.
Yes, it will heat the room in winter and yes, you can make your office a sonna in summer! So don't neglect the cooling!
