Pros: Looks clean and sturdy, certainly better than the stock AM5 retention mount. Very easy to install, and will prevent accidental thermal paste spillage.

Cons: Does it really impact thermals? Not so much. Something like a 10th of a degree.

Overall Review: Buy it for the solid mounting. Definitely a better option.

Pros: Looks nice, clean lines.

Cons: There were no drivers with this board at all. I was unable to even install them after downloading from ASUSs driver page. Spent DAYS trying every possible fix with no success. Drivers simply will not install. Something is broken in this board that is blocking the ability to install any driver. Could not connect Ethernet or Wifi at all. Ethernet from wall definitely works on my other PC. Returned for a different board.

Overall Review: If it doesnt work, it has to go back.

Pros: This is a MASSIVE AIO. One plug for the whole danged show very nice. Install was fairly straight forward.

Cons: There are some boards that will be problematic with this cooler due to the mounting touching/pressing on capacitors. There is a fix kit for an issue with certain revisions for a manufacturing issue with the rubber seal in the pump/plate body, and the fix is very simple but they shouldnt still be selling these with that defect. Not compatible with certain fans like the Lian Li Uni 140s.

Overall Review: You will need a large case for this. I have a Thermaltake View71 and its a snug fit. The fact that you only have one plug for the entire AIO is absolutely great.

Pros: First off, getting it at MSRP put it cheaper than the 3900X it replaced. Secondly, while its stock FPS in Heavenbench avgd about 20 more, the MIN FPS went from avg of 9 to almost 70! Thats huge. Leaving this on auto-overclock with PBO led to much better scores in Heaven and in game (CoD Warzone). FPS in Warzone (Downtown @1440) bumped an average of 15-20, but theres no more visible dip when in firefights. It has made a massive difference in winning engagements thanks to EIGHT TIMES higher MIN FPS.To all the tech reviewers who said the 5800X doesnt make sense at the price (spend a bit more for the 5900 for more performance, spend a bit less for only slightly less performance on the 5600X, guess what? It absolutely makes sense now, as 5600s are instantly out stock and cost way more on secondary markets, and the 5900s are nearly twice the price.

Cons: Your motherboard may not be Ryzen 5000 compatible, even though its still an AM4 socket. Check your vendor compatibility and make sure they have the BIOS for it before buying. Also, needs fast ram to get the most performance, which is a rather large additional cost... if you dont already have at least DDR4 3600.

Overall Review: If its in stock and in your price range, go for it!
