Cool, thanks for sharing, Jake. I wish you had one to fit the x570 MEG unify. I would rock that in a heartbeat.

We are considering that board, but nothing at all confirmed yet.

A good looking product let down by how underwhelming the 11900K is.

Although they look beautiful full coverage water blocks are kind of a waste. 1) the VRM doesn't get hot enough to warrant a water block and 2) all your doing is increasing your CPU temps. 3) they're more expensive than just a regular CPU block
It's definitely a largely aesthetic thing. I tend to prefer them for that reason alone though.
Granted, if you have poor airflow over the VRM's then it can technically be useful.
