Dark rock 3 or Dark Rock Pro 3? Performance? RAM?

[Danii]

Hey guys I just wanted to ask, if the Dark Rock Pro 3 will fit in my case and how much ram clearance there is underneath the heat sink of the dark rock pro 3..

I have Corsair Vengeance Pro 2400 16GB kit... https://www.google.nl/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&ved=0ahUKEwjBg62TjcbOAhUJVBQKHY75BJsQjRwIBw&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.corsair.com%2Fen-us%2Fvengeance-pro-series-16gb-2-x-8gb-ddr3-dram-2400mhz-c10-memory-kit-cmy16gx3m2a2400c10r&bvm=bv.129759880,d.ZGg&psig=AFQjCNGAdyLOK7hRe7vILiFSDn57qO_aOA&ust=1471442623797333 I read that the height is 44mm..

or if it doesn't fit.. what is a better option that will fit?

Thanks in advance!

How does it perform? Temps? Noise? anything?

Very well , the H7 is also decent , best budget cooler on the market , both won't interfere with memory modules.

So I won't have issues with the dark rock pro 3? i'm looking for a high end silent cooler around 85 Euro's.

Dark Rock Pro3 only allows up to 40mm modules , yours are 44mm.​

CRYORIG R1 Universal CPU Cooler

Unmatched Compatibility
Zero RAM Interference

Focusing on providing the widest range of compatibility, the R1 utilizes an asymmetric slanted heatpipe layout to move the front heatsink fin stack further away from the RAM zone. Also, fitted with a 13mm thin XT140 the CRYORIG R1 offers optimal compatibility for RAM with tall heat spreaders on both Intel (115X/1366/775) and AMD platforms.

What about the Noctua NH-D15 it has ram clearance... is that the way to go? or the scythe mugen max??

http://noctua.at/en/nh-d15.html?comp=1 it says 64mm :O That should fit perfectly fine if i move the first fan up a bit... I read the post. i'm not trying to be rude or something.. it's about the simplicity..

the R1 Ultimate will fit right?

 

[Dark Lord of Tech]

Yellow if no second fan installed \ Red if second fan installed.
Slide the fan up some it might fit , but fan will be quite elevated compared to middle fan.

R1 Universal is the better of the 2 to avoid ram issues.
