I'll start right away with my experiences after the order. As a rule, modern motherboards and processor heatsinks are made with a backlog for maximum compatibility. Therefore, when I ordered it, it didnโt even occur to me to look at the be quiet! motherboard compatibility. But smart people decided to direct me to this site, but the cooler has already been ordered and paid for. It remains only to receive it. The manufacturer's website for my Asus TUF GAMING H570-PRO categorically states that it is not compatible. And then the worries began: you need to bother with the return, look for something similar in performance characteristics but compatible, etc. On the Internet, I did not find a single review or installation experience for my mother (TUF GAMING H570-PRO) of this radiator. For TUF GAMING X570, you please. I decided to compare the compatibility of the purchased radiator with the older sister - TUF GAMING Z590-PLUS: compatibility is limited (in terms of the RAM height used). Although both boards look almost like twin sisters. I thought about it - and decided to pick it up and try it on the spot, whether it will fit or not. There was a suion that the compatibility data was compiled superficially, without real use experience. Having disembled the case, removed the mother and removed its old NOCTUA NH-U9s, I tried on the new Be Quiet Dark Rock Pro 4 without installing a mount, putting it on the processor: I did not see any obvious prerequisites for problems. My heart was relieved, my palms were sweating in anticipation of the further process of installing such a mustang on my beauty, rarely mentioned in the reviews. No sooner said than done, let's go! The process of embling fasteners for the socket does not cause any special problems and difficulties, everything is logical. Having installed the mount for the LGA1200 socket, we begin to install the heatsink itself on the processor. Here it is revealed why the manufacturer decided to put a bold red cross on compatibility: the jumper that attracts the heatsink to the mount practically touches the top VRM heatsink of the motherboard, but does not strike it. Then everything fell into place perfectly. Photo below.
