One questions about Rizen I havent seen.

RespawnRedemption

Is there going to be a new standard for CPU cooler mounting on AM4 boards? I keep reading and hearing how they have been getting lots of vender support from cooler companies. Does this mean theres going to be a new standard making us require a specified  list of coolers? I'm planning to build one soon after release. I'm ordering and collectin parts now like ramm, storage, case, etc. I dont know what standard the chipset uses for mounting the cooler though so hit a roadblock. Anyone know?

It looks compatible with AM3 coolers, but I'm not sure.

It is a new mounting solution but for what i read a few days ago, AMD will support it with some kind of adaptors you put on your existing cooler so you don't have to change it, so lets wait and see!!
