Alternate fan for noctua nh-d15

[chucktheiceman]

I have the noctua nh-d15. I can only fit the middle fan on the cooler. My g.skill Trident Z is way too high for the second fan. And the case side won't go on when I prop it up. Although my temps are great I would like to have a second fan for this beast that would fit on top of my ram buy still allow my to close the case. What are my options for an alternate fan?

Is there enough room to put it on the backside? (It still needs to blow air rearwards.)

I forgot to add the 120mm fans would also fit. Noctua 140mm round fans use the same mounting holes as 120 square fans.

Actually with the help of noctua support I ordered a Noctua NF-F12 PWM. It's a 120mmx120mm fan that will fit into the same heat sink fan clamps as the NF-A15. Excellent solution to the problem and same color scheme.

Yes, the D14 comes that way, a 14 in the middle and a 12 on the front.
