It would, but it’s designed for Threadripper motherboards that share the same socket as EPYC but are usually oriented at 90deg.
All other correctly-oriented EPYC heatsinks are tiny, made for 1U/2U chassis and are much shitter at cooling a ~200W CPU than the Noctua at a jaunty angle.

wait, why is your heatsink oriented like that? wouldn't it better to point the fans front/back?
