be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4 Cooler

Whenever I play MS Flight Simulator 2020 (Ultra settings) and Deliver Us The Moon (EPIC settings including maxed out Ray Tracing), the motherboard emits a beep from time to time. This happens when CPU temperature reaches 90C and above.

As Summer Season is near, I decided to upgrade the CPU cooler from AMD Wraith Prism Cooler to be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 4 Cooler DRP4. As of this posting, DRP4 is not in stock anywhere here in Australia so I placed an order today with BHPHOTOVIDEO. It's around A$40 more expensive but at least it's in stock and I don't have to wait for months (if buying locally).

I made sure it's compatible to the motherboard:


At the moment, CPU is idling at around 48C (Spring Season here in Australia, room has no ACU):



Oct 3 6am update: Item has shipped out with DHL Express.

Oct 11 9am update: Item somehow is still ‘on hold’ at DHL depot in NJ, USA.

Oct 14 7pm update: Finally, some movement! Posting it here for future reference:


Oct 16 8pm update: Got it!



It took 2 weeks!!! Disappointing if I'm honest.
