so I've just completed my aim for benchmarks rigged for you guys and I'm happy to say I'll get you guys some day 1 coverage on March 2nd so stay tuned for that however there was one little thing that I ran into that I just wanted to give you guys like an FYI oh for your information so let's take a look what exact attack yes city this brand coming to you guys today with a quick video on just the a.m. for cooler compatibility and what's going to happen guys so if you've gone out and pre-ordered your rising CPU you're going to get your motherboard just be aware that on day one a lot of the bolt down coolers with a m3 compatibility actually won't fit and for motherboards now talked about this with Steve from Hardware unboxed is sent me a photo in Andy has confirmed that the a m3 raised cooler will fit the a m4 socket so it looks like a lot of those latch down coolers will fit the a m4 socket however I know that bolt down coolers will unfortunately not fit the a m4 platform unless the motherboard manufacturers have the am 3 holes drilled out as well as the aim for holes so the aim three holes are a little bit longer in length they're kind of a similar structure but I found that I had to zip-tie my cooler down and I've tested out quite a few coolers around here too by the way I even managed to get this cooler master 212 to almost fit it's just that I would have had to pretty much ruin the bracket to get it fit in even only one diagonal direction so just a little FYI for you guys if you are buying a cooler on day one make sure that it fits and for if not and you can wait a little bit then I'm sure a lot of the cooler manufacturers will be bringing out brackets and they will be sending them out hopefully for free to you guys if you already have an expensive cooler I generally find that the bigger air coolers and also the all in ones tend to bolt down so these are the ones that will generally have the compatibility issues because you have to bolt them down from the top and you will need those a and four holes lined up I mean if you want to drill things or zip ties things which I don't recommend that you can do it but I'm only doing because I want to get you guys day one coverage so stay tuned for that if you have any questions you guys be sure to drop a comment the comment section below don't forget to hit that like button and of course if you dislike this video to get to slam that dislike button and I'll catch you guys in another tech video very soon please now for now bye
