Just replaced my Gigabyte x470 Ultra mb with a MSI X570 Unify. Added a Sabrent Rocket 1tb Nvme4 ssd.
What a GREAT mb!

@Pandora's Box CPU temps seem a bit high. What is the ambient temp? Are you getting good air flow in case? (Looks like you should be). Are you running overclocked?
I think it's the AIDA64 stress test. Cinebench doesnt break 72C.
Noctua forever. Expensive or not every fan will always be noctua for me in the future.I have my fan profiles set to my CPU temp. That way they spin up under heavy loads and keep the system cooler. My Noctua stays pretty quiet even at max fans. The only fan that gets noisy is my rear 140mm fan - forget the brand right now, it’s been in that case for 5 or 6 years.

Wow! I still have 2 92 mm fans off a Dell tower server - they’ll blow you into a different time zone (detla's maybe).I still have an all metal 12cm fan I pull off a DEC server :awe:

Using an old discontinued cooler (NH-C14) with my ryzen system. Had to request an AM4 mounting kit but, after sending this pic:Noctua forever. Expensive or not every fan will always be noctua for me in the future.

(I covered in white my full name and e-mail for posting purposes, but they are required).
They sent it for free: had to wait about one week for it to arrive. Not bad, for a ten year old cooler, already discontinued for several years.
They are expensive, no doubt but the quality is there and they usually provide you with newer mounting kits for free (like my AM4, in my case), provided you present proof of ownership of @ least 2 items: cooler + either CPU or board. As seen in the pic, i chose the board.
wow that is great service
^^ Nice, that's a good improvement! What kind of RPM do you run them at? I keep most of my fans around 800 or so, moving air but fairly silent.
I have them all running at 1000rpm, the cpu fans don't increase speed until 80c then its max speed.
When I tested, I had the gpu selected as well
My first Althon, maybe 1.1Ghz, came with a few bent pins from newegg, also my first newegg purchase, but i fixed them with needle nose pliers.Hey all,
Here is my finally completed build. Had a few issues with the CPU having bent pins then having to locate a new vendor. Specs are in sig.

Be Quiet and Artic also make great fans. I could never get over the colors Noctua used until the black Chroma color came out recently.Noctua forever. Expensive or not every fan will always be noctua for me in the future.
I've had a couple Arctic coolers and they were nice. Noctuas were/are fugly till the new blacks came out - worse looking bit on my system.Be Quiet and Artic also make great fans. I could never get over the colors Noctua used until the black Chroma color came out recently.

I thought about that, but didn't want to risk having issues later on.
Oh, Cinebench R20 score only dropped 0.5% or so. Interesting.
