Because it is going since last week. I informed AMD, then I discussed it with Alphacool and two Chinese OEM, manufacturing cooler stuff for the so-called A-brands. Later I was in closer contact with the HQs of a few motherboard companies and today finally also with Asus. All this ppl were simply surprised, that the hight of the holders has been changed without reporting it especially in the specs. Not one factory got the requested real hardware, to play with it before launch! Only datasheets. The follow is visible now... A reviewer in France was using the Be Quiet! Silent Loop and contacted AMD to report the same problem. The answer was a pure lie, because AMD said to him, that this cooler will 100% work. I have the same AiO here in my storage and it works NOT. After a few days with no reaction from AMD and a lot of feedback from the cooler industry we decided to publish it at the end. We were waiting for AMD - but if we all got answers, they were incomplete or wrong.Ok, I hope to keep the NDA:This issue can be a reason, why Ryzen 7 1800X may look worse in some launch review as he is. If the reviewers not mentioned a possible ussie, the will benchmark with too high temperatures. And this is nothing, what I personally wih AMD. It is important to communicate it BEFORE launch to help anybody to pay more attention for all this cooling stuff. And now again: I wrote Pro or Against AMD?
