Good point. Didn't remember how the thing looked. That's one con off the list then :)

Just because it’s newer doesn’t mean it’s better. And even if it was a few degrees cooler it’s not worth it to make the whole case wider imo. It’s a shame the NH-L12 is discontinued now, luckily got mine on the way. But the NH-L12 is probably the better option in this use case anyway. If you...

NH-L12 taking the cake again. I'll just go with that one I guess and if it doesn't fit with Ryzen, tough luck :p http://louqe.com/img/img/ext/ext/GhostCPUheatSinkTest.pdf One question though, was the NH-L12 fan set as intake or exhaust in the tests?

That’s a very good point! Better keep my cooler plans theoretical until a certain option is confirmed :) thanks! And ofc, congratulations!

The super early bird and early bird XS have this in their description: ”we will throw in an extra surprise in the package for you”. Back on CPU coolers I might try going with the Wraith Spire and a 15mm or 25mm fan for it.

Thanks for that. I had a feint memory that I had read a test like this before, just couldn’t find it. Yeah I’m aware it’s the older L12. Got my eyes on one as they’re still sold here. I think I’ll just go with the L12 and call it a day. Not going to overclock my Ryzen to the max anyway.

1. Will Early bird special (S, M, L) also include the extra surprise or only the XS one? 2. Is there any way to lower the PCI-E slot to make room for a 1070 FTW without Tophats? 3. What’s the best CPU cooler for the Ghost without tophats? I’m looking at the Noctua NH-L12 and bequiet Shadow...
