I would think so but you can contact EVGA tech support for verification. 

AMD Ryzen 9 7950X,  Corsair Mp700 Pro M.2, 64GB Corsair Dominator Titanium DDR5  X670E Steel Legend, MSI RTX 4090 Associate Code: H5U80QBH6BH0AXF. I am NOT an employee of EVGA

You can also replace the strock thermal pads with Thermal Putty. There are several good ones out there like Upsiren UTP-8, Fehonda LTP-81, Laird T-Putty 607, Halnziye HY236/HY256, CX-H1300. You often get better core contact since the putty is much softer than traditional pads. Also does a better job of cooling GDDR6X.
