I want to replace the Wraith Spire cooler that came with my 2600x with a Cryorig H7 on a ASUS ROG Strix X470-F Gaming mobo. Has anyone used this combination and were there any clearance problems? I'm concerned about the plastic shroud on the rear of the board. Also, has anyone had to order the correct backplate from Cryorig after getting their cooler? I'd like to get some feedback before I dismantle my build to check with the paper template.
 


if you go to Cryong's web there should be a couple of blueprints on the cooler, showing total height, and ram clearance height at the bottom. take a look at your computer case's mfgr's website for the cooler height clearance or how tall a call it will accept, and take a look at your ram's website for it's height and that should tell you all you need
