Sure, the standard hero costs 35 USD more than the X570-E. Based on what you're saying, I'm leaning toward the hero option. The dark hero's OC feature is really appealing, but I think the 235 USD difference between the two isn't worth it. Thanks for helping me save 200 dollars!

Supporters or boosters? Whichever you choose should last beyond your setup. Even without them, you'll easily reach the five-year milestone. Plus, you can move them to another system whenever you like. Some have lasted much longer—my D5 is nearing six years old and performing well.

Sure, let me rephrase that for you. I was curious about the MB fan and thought it might be better to stick with it.

Check the prices for MSI X570 Tomahawk, Unify, and Gigabyte X570 Aorus Pro. Focus on value without overspending.

It seems straightforward to modify the setup. Taking out the chipset and heatsinks wouldn’t be too complicated if they malfunction. I’m pretty confident the fan can be turned off so it doesn’t spin until the temperature reaches a certain point or something similar.

Choose the ASUS board. Avoided issues with other options before; just wanted to steer clear. Focus on UFI-related concerns.

Looks like we can integrate it directly into the loop. That should work fine.

It really comes down to the CPU it's paired with, but it's definitely worth considering for a 5900x or 5950x. I'd stick with the dark hero board mainly for the boost switch and the absence of a chipset fan. Ultimately, it's a personal choice.

I owned a Rog x570-f Gaming paired with a Ryzen 3900X a few hours back. Due to some unexpected issues, I had to purchase a new motherboard—Dark Hero was the only choice at nearby stores. Other brands are sold out. Let go of Covid-19. For me, the investment seems justified despite the $600 cost. It appears the system is built around Zen3 CPUs, and I believe the 3900X won’t utilize Dynamic OC Switch as I understand. Adding extra temperature sensors would be helpful for my custom water cooling rig. A new VRM design would be a better upgrade than the current x570-f’s inadequate solution. BT and wireless options with plenty of USB ports are great. Some useful buttons across the board are handy for OverClockers. Perhaps I’ll experiment with LN2 cooling—stay safe!
