That is water chilled phase change cooling, no consumer is going to run a desktop with that kind of cooling. It is as pointless as liquid nitrogen based benchmarks IMO. But I think threadripper 2 should have faster clock speeds regardless. The zen+ 12nm cores that it uses are known to have higher clock speeds.
