Hi guys,
I was going to buy a Corsair H115i AIO cooler for my current CPU, but I was wondering...
since I intend to upgrade to the 9700k with a Z390 mobo upon its release, does anyone know if the H115i will be compatible with this new chipset? Or is there no information released on this yet?
I can't seem to find any information on it myself.

Thanks in advance.

Very little difference between Z390 and the previous Z370 chipset and most motherboard manufacturers have confirmed support for 9th Gen CPU’s already and have issued BIOS updates.

Here is an excellent article outlining all the differences between the chipsets:
