Yeah... Ended up getting Asus rog maximum z890 hero

UPDATE: AC 420 very easily fitted inside the H9 Flow, lots of room afterwards, decent amount of room between the radiator and motherboard, more than enough to plugin the CPU powers easily. I put it on top, but it was also compatible with the front/side. Great cooler btw, I have paired it with a...

Seems like several, or most, high end for sure, but even mid range motherboards these days come with built in heatsinks... Something to consider while buying SSDs

Yeah... I wanted to get one with heatsink as well, but just acquires one using some point and stuff at a portal, they didn't have the heatsink option :(

Any one using anything else? Any other recommendations? It's for a 990 pro

16GB (2x8GB) DDR4-2666 SK Hynix kits: is that desktop memory?

That's the definition of building PC 😜

It's just a 285k + 3090ti, no overclocking...

I have NZXT H9 Flow, it says it can fit 420s both on top and front. I am getting the cooler from Amazon, so there's the option to return of it does not fit. It's worth a try.

Since the price difference is minimal and my case can handle it, I am thinking why not go for the 420... Thoughts?

Thank, good info. Steel legend seems to be white only, I need black... I will lean towards tomahawk for now.

I am planning on 285k building, currently on 12900k, it was a microcenter combo. Didn't really research motherboards in a long time... What's popular these days? Looking at a MSI Tomahawk or maybe upgrade to a Taichi, no higher than 350. I won't be going crazy with overclocking, might play...

Durability is the top priority, seed/performance is second

Will be replacing old 960 pro, is the Samsung Pro product line still the best in terms of reliability? Or maybe WD or Crucial or something worth considering?

On the same boat as Luke above, will check.
