| Captain_Yuri said: I'd be curious as to what the difference will be as the Dark Hero is already passive cooling. Granted it's a $400 mobo but I doubt there's anything very care worthy in terms of actual cooling in the Mobo. Still, it will be interesting. Kinda lame that Zen 3+ won't be happening. I do still suspect they might do a special XT version at the very least like they did last year with the 3000 series. |
I doubt there will be much in it, maybe one or two other small tweaks here an there. Idd Dark Hero comes with a huge heatsink on its chipset and and has excellent cooling all round and performance. I feel this X570(s) refresh is a release to keep AiB's happy and have people buy new boards. Releasing a 'new and improved' silent X570 boards will keep peoples eyes on AMD and Ryzen, even when Alderlake releases later this year.
But yeah I can see AMD going for a XT refresh to go against Alderlake.
