I also pointed out in a different thread but it's worth repeating. When I went in to bundle with the 7950X3D, I didn't reserve it online. The sales associate said the RAM was out of stock and offered to check with his manager about offering a different set in its place. Even if it shows out of stock, they might be willing to work with you to make a sale. It might not be as good, it could potentially be better. They also eventually found the bundled RAM in the back; I think there were a handful of reservations placed that were never picked up, so the website may say out of stock but the store might still have it. You won't know if you don't try, which I highly recommend if you're even on the fence.
These bundles have also changed about once every two months or so between prices and components for the few months. If you aren't sold yet, it could change next month.
Lastly, I was able to get the $25 new customer discount. It required the cashier to individually price and scan items based on the sale price without scanning it as a bundle. UFD Tech on YouTube has a video up sponsored by Micro Center which specifically calls out these bundles and that the discount applies. https://youtu.be/wO4QiOrk81o @3:29. It could be worth referencing if they say it's not meant to work that way. YMMV.
Had to use the new customer $25 off discount and had to get a manager to do it manually. Scanning the coupon was not enough. The manager did it quickly since they were very busy.
$403.99 after $25 coupon OTD. Was in the Tustin, CA location.

Are there any air coolers that can handle it or do I have to go the liquid cooler aio route?

It was $5 cheaper in store and based on the specs, it appears to clearly handle the CPU wattage.

Regarding the other comment about the pricing. I ended up buying the lower 350 for the mobo, ddr4 and cpu and it came up 329. Cheaper.
CPU ran 127, mobo 149 and memory 38 bucks.
