Gonna chime in some praise on the Dark Rock Pro 4, mine is cooling a 8086K (at one point at 5ghz) and it is pretty quiet

They're awesome, I'm loving my Dark Rock Pro 4, extremely quiet under load

Craptacular! posted:Dark Rock Pro looks nice but almost always blocks RAM in every instance, and if you paid money carnival lighting on your memory sticks you won't see it. I have this RAM and it works just fine

Paul MaudDib posted:Dark Rock 4 and Dark Rock Pro 4 are very different coolers. The former is basically a single tower like a Noctua U14, the latter is a dual tower like the D15. Huh, I wondered what the Pro stood for, guess now I know

I don't know about color accuracy, but viewing angle was extremely obvious going from a Dell 1080p60 IPS to a Dell 1440p144 TN. It felt like blacks looked very different if they were at the top of the monitor versus the bottom. When I returned it for an Acer Predator 1440p144 IPS monitor all was right

ufarn posted:Noctua should also be announcing their black D15 this month. If they don't, honestly gently caress 'em and buy a Be Quiet cooler instead if they still can't get their act together. Loving my Dark Rock Pro 4, throwing in my endorsement for Be Quiet as well

Also aesthetics. I have a Dark Rock Pro 4 and it is plenty for running my 8086K at 5ghz quietly. But I'm currently toying with running a full CPU/GPU loop because it'd look sooo neat

I went to a custom loop solely for aesthetics. Performance isn't any better or worse than my previous Dark Rock Pro 4. GPU is better though

Is Zen 4 going to be on DDR5? I have a habit of only upgrading to every DDR version and my 8086K is doing fine so far

I'm thinking about going AMD in the future. What should I know coming from Intel? Wasn't there some software I should install to optimize it? Is PBO something I should enable without thought? Assume I'd be using decent cooling

I have a couple questions, since Micro Center put the 5900X back at $549 I've thought about upgrading from my 8700K. I'm currently running 3200 memory, is it worth it to upgrade to 3600 or even 4000? What recommended non-Asus boards are there? I say non Asus because I tried a prebuilt with a 3070 before returning it and it had an Asus X570 and it did not play well with my 2.1 setup at all.

Cygni posted:I bought some 3600CL16 2x16 B-Die when I upgraded, and i absolutely don't think its worth it from what I've seen. Here's my testing. IF/UCLK always in sync, everything is 2 ranks per channel, dual channel on, no PBO or overclocking, 3090 FT3 Ultra with stock settings, same boot drive, win/driver version etc: Awesome, thanks!
