It's been nearly a decade that I have been using an i7 920 build so I'm quite excited.
Has anyone gotten 4-8 sticks of 16 GB working at DDR4 3600+? What about 8 sticks @ 3200? I really want to start on my Threadripper build, but I really want to target 64 GB of RAM and I'd rather not be 'stuck' with 8x8. In my current machine I never upgraded from 16 GB because I had 4x4 GB and didn't want to have to replace those. I want to be able to add RAM in the future without issue.
8x8GB should be preferable to 4x16GB as SS modules have better timings in comparison to DS modules. It's clear if you look at G.Skill website and compare various modules. They also support higher frequencies. You should use the 16GB modules only if you want maximum supported memory = 8x16GB.

So looks like a few manufacturers will be having a much larger waterblock with fins that covers most of the IHS rather than just an extended cold plate like EK.
Likely looking at the end of the month for XSPC and Swiftech and Sept 6th for Heatkiller. I'm getting antsy waiting for a proper watercooling solution.
In the meantime my 480 monsta rad is getting prepped for TR usage soon
Nice catchI spy some Gentle Typhoons... my favorite 120mm fans.
I have 8 of them myself. Used them back when I did custom water loops. best fans ever.

Scythe stopped making them a while ago but I have the original Scythe GT AP15s as well as the newer Darkside GT that is a collaboration between Dazmode and Nidec.kinda OT but i thought Scythe stopped making the Gentle Typhoons? did i misread that years ago or did they simply bring them back?
How did you install it? Did you get the special bracket swiftech is currently selling for TR?Well I am up and running. I am still waiting on my water block. I decided to install my swichtech block from my 5960x. Temps seem fine for now.
All set up! I need to finish installing software and downloading some benchmarks. For anyone who has trouble installing Windows 10, make sure to disable IOMMU in the BIOS!
Also, the HyperX Predator 4x8GB memory kit seems to be running at its advertised speed without issues (3200, 16-18-18). I just used the Memory Try It option in the MSI BIOS. These are Hynix chips so maybe someone finds that info useful.
