Ok, I cannot clarify for Senaxx on whether they're using the motherboard heatsink or the nvme heatsink. However as Arctic explicitly call out the m2 heatsink incompatibility on their compatibility list that I referenced above and have clarified with them via a support ticket I would say it is...

Senaxx clarified to my post that's it's the SSD heatsink. You can look at the compatibility on the LF3 website here: https://support.arctic.de/lf3-compatibility

Had to upgrade my PC today (CPU died, the joys). Submitted my own ticket too though I'm sitting on a NR200 until the C4 is released.

Just need to contact their support with your invoices (proof of the AIO and proof of the mobo) and they'll send one out

Also found out you can contact Arctic for an SSD heatsink replacement for the B650E-I (a mobo I'm looking at too) so that may help with interference issues if that's what you meant by leaning on the SSD tower.

Accidental double post

Thanks for the info! I just bought the LF III too because of the better design but was still worried on fitment. Do you have any photos of your arrangement?

Not sure where you're getting the core count for 3070? I see it listed with 5888 vs the 2080ti 4352 which is 35%. Also, the 3070 is a 256bit bus vs 352bit bus, so that'll have an impact on the performance. Also the small tweak/changes will change it too. Nvidia also been leaning heavily on ray...

Just got to wait for reviewers to go through the process (they're actually done, just waiting for embargo to be lifted). There's also a few rumours floating around, such as FE cards are cherry picked silicon and possible best versions are sent out to reviewers - who knows if this is true, but...

For sure, looks like a massive time saving tool. From what I've seen, for all intents and purposes it just does the same stuff we would have to do manually in tweaking and testing and to have a "one click, 90% good enough" option definitely ticks my boxes. I think he's looking at releasing it...

I do want a specific call out, and GamerNexus did this too, it's the marketing team and not related to the engineers/product/etc. Steve makes that specific distinction (which I think the majority of the general community will miss it). Now, whether this is higher up in the MSI chain who knows...

Thought I'd register my interest too as I'm looking around at options too.

70A to 90A isn't a huge deal from efficieny according to buildzoid, but being only 6 phases he said the extra 20A can help when working outside of the efficiency range if running a 3950X, etc. I'm assuming he means at full tilt too.

Nero is right about the 50A, confirmed from a review I found here: https://www.pctestbench.com/asus-rog-strix-b550-i-gaming-am4-motherboard-review/3/ Otherwise, the Gigabyte one looks pretty tasty: https://www.techpowerup.com/review/gigabyte-b550i-aorus-pro-ax/4.html I haven't found concrete...

I thought they were 90A in 8+2 setup?
