CPU to RAM slot distance?. Standard measurement?

[mercuk]

For the purpose of ensuring the Heatsink width and ram don't touch each other I am trying to ascertain the measurement between the CPU and ram slots on numerous motherboards.

So far, every Asus and Asrock manual I have pulled fails to give this information.

Anyone know if this is a standard measurement?

TIA

It is for sure the same across atx boards, but i'm not sure if mini atx boards have the same distance. I just installed a hyper212 on my mobo and the distance was perfect. The edge of the fan ended up about 1mm from the RAM sticks so now air is getting pulled across them.

The Noctua heatsink and fans work well too.
The fans would actually overlap into RAM's heat spreaders, but you can mount the Noctua's fans at any height so you only need to lift them a couple of millimeters to clear the taller heat spreaders.

I'm installing a Micro ATX board. I wonder if its the same. Do you happen to know the number in mm?.

I am sure i read earlier of someones hyper 212 hitting their ram but im not sure what mobo it was.

Answering my own question.

Asrock replied with 30mm
Asus replied with 23mm

Is it 23 mm across all Asus mATX motherboards?
I am wondering what the distance is between the RAM slot and processor on Asus H61M-K microATX motherboard.
