    Looks like the Node 202 has a max cpu cooler height of 56mm. That's really not much. What CPU are we trying to cool in it?

    I do my fan control in the BIOS.  I have an ASUS x470 prime, I'd imagine the fan control would be the same as your X570 tuf.  I ended up setting all fans to the silent profile, the CPU boosts to almost the same regardless of 68 or 72 degrees and the near silent running is worth way more to me than 25mhz.  When getting the fans dialed in, fan orientation made the biggest difference in temperatures.  I run negative pressure and flow from back to front and that made most of the difference, flow balance between a couple of the fans also impacted things more than I would have thought.  That said with a different case and a different cooler about all I can really comment on is that I think your CPU temps should be better with the dark rock pro.
     
    I should have mentioned in the post above, GPU is a gigabyte 2070 super, it sees between 66-70 throughout the blender & heaven benchmarks

    Running a stock 3700X, with good case cooling mine gets to 72 degrees max when running a blender and heaven loop, I think the fan only hits about 2600 rpm like this and is OK for noise.  I'm sure I could run it cooler at the expense of noise.  Before I had the case fans sorted I would get up over 80 degrees with the fan screaming loudly at max (3200 rpm).  When gaming the system barely makes any noise, haven't logged temps but the fans barely speed up.
     
    IMO the Prism is totally fine if your willing to put a bit of effort into case cooling and running stock speeds, might work for a mild overclock.

    Lots of windows in the second phase.  This is one of the bosses to approach phase 2 like a completely new boss, keep your patience.  I agree with above dont bother parrying him, EXCEPT the bellyflop slash parry that and counter for massive damage.

    Bloodborne is easily worth the price of the PS4.  Its become my favorite game ever.  I think all of the Soul's games require a particular mindset to fully enjoy, but if you do Bloodborne is the best of them.  Great combat, amazing atmosphere, amazing level design, I really cant say enough good things about this game. 
     
    Horizon Zero Dawn is pretty good too, super fun gameplay and a solid story.

    Thanks. Makes the B450 tomahawk and 3600 seem like a much better use of money.
