Asus ROG X570 Crosshair Dark Hero Release? *** NO Competitor Talk ***

I've noticed that if you use the Asus chipset drivers CPU temps are 15-20c higher compared to getting the chipset drivers direct from AMD. Not sure what's happening here, if it's a reporting error or something else.

I've heard that there have been discrepancies in how certain apps "calculate" the temperature. Some say that Ryzen Master is the most "proper" one.
 
I've got 4x16GB 3466mhz B die, did you get the same great deal on Corsair RGB stuff I did by any chance?

I really struggled with 4x16GB on my 3900/X570 Taichi. I've not tried running 4 sticks on my 5900X, but 2 sticks run great. Got to 3800mhz C16 no problem.

Yep thats 100% the same deal I got, the Dominator Platinum RGB.

Good to know you managed to get it running well with 2 sticks. Hopefully I should get my CPU cooler tomorrow and I can try see if it can handle 4x 16 but don't expect it to run too well.
 
This might muddy things rather than clear them up, but nevertheless this is GN's summary of the relative performance of four vs two sticks of memory with Zen 3...
First comment on that video from GN directly says they are aware that the discrepancy is due to ranks and will do a follow up video.
 
I'm using the same memory with the Dark Hero as I had with my 2950X / X399 setup (4x8GB 3600MHz C16 single rank). On my X399 platform, I could not get the memory to hit their rated specs of 3600MHz C16 no matter what I did, had to resort to 3533MHz C16. On the dark hero, worked flawlessly straight out of the box, and have now overclocked it to 3800MHz with the same C16 timings with voltage bumped up from 1.35V to 1.365V.
 
A good video on memory and it features the dark hero.

That comment sums up what I dislike about that channel. The point isn't made clear at all in the video, as if they didn't know... and their comment reads as if they knew all along. Not much humbleness!

Also the videos are way too long / poorly edited.

Related to this, I had a look but I couldn’t find the follow up video.

Did anyone else who ordered on Tuesday night/Wednesday morning have any movement on their tracking? Mine just seems to have been stuck in the same place in Czech Republic since being shipped and getting a bit worried something has gone wrong.
