CPU Planning an Dan A4 build questions about BlackRidge and Asus z490 I-Gaming

[kevinxia787]

Hello!


Gathering parts for a Dan A4 V4 build and I was wondering if the Asus Z490 I-Gaming Motherboard is compatible with the Alpenfohn Blackridge V2 cooler.

If not - what motherboards are fully compatible with the Dan A4 +Blackridge (need the front USB C IO )

Hi.

I don't think there is a complete list available (couldn't find one anyway). I was researching the topic a couple weeks ago and found that Gigabyte and MSI mobos are compatible with BR:

Both have a USB-C front header too. I ended up with Gigabyte, but didn't build the PC yet - still waiting on my Dan A4
