I'm considering a refresh of my cpu and motherboard, probably sticking with Intel and looking at either a 9700k or 9900k. I figure I can just keep using my Noctua NH-D15 that I've owned several years now. Does anyone know if there will be trouble mounting this on a z390 board using the brackets that originally came with the heatsink? Looking at the Noctua website I don't see any new mounting kits for sale and I think I should be fine, but it never hurts to ask.
As an aside, would anything outside of a custom water loop give me better performance in a meaningful way?
