[SOLVED] Will Dark Rock Pro 3 fit in my case/MoBo?

[fantisjjj]

Hello,

I have a Be QUIET! Dark Rock Pro 3 from a previous setup
I am about to order some new parts including an Asus X-470F and a Fractal Design Meshify C so i am wondering if the above cooler will fit with this setup since the motherboard has a fairly large heatsink near its rear I/O
Also the cooler didn't have an AM4 bracket back in the day i bought it but i read there is an upgrade kit i could buy for a few euros. Anyone knows if it "sits" nicely without any problems?

Thanks a lot in advance

Very, very, very few coolers are of sufficient size to be an issue for those rear hestsink/covers. If there's an issue, it's usually with heat piping coming into contact with the heatsinks on the VRM's (had that happen with my mpower Z77 and a Raijintek Nemesis) which are right next to the socket.

You'll be fine.
