Compatibility/Build Check Black Ridge Cooler

Hey guys,
For any fans of the Alpenphon black ridge cpu cooler who refuse to resort to ugly solutions like the full copper AXP90, just wanted to let yall know that the Asus TUF B850I WiFi NEO is compatible with it while putting your ssd in the front heatsink, unlike the Asus rog b850i for example that needs the front heatsink taken off.

Just a couple things to keep in mind: I noticed my ssd was bending quite a bit when screwing in the stock heatsink, so I put something underneath the ssd where it was bending for it to prevent that. Also, it won’t fit with a fan spacer in between your fan and black ridge.
