[SOLVED] Does Corsair Dominator Platinum fits with DRP4 Cooler?

[murraccar]

Hello there!

I'm just about to buy a new CPU cooler for my new system. But I'm really confused about should I go with liquid cooler or air cooler. If I go with liquid, I'm planning to buy NZXT Kraken x62. If I go with air, I'm planning to buy Dark Rock Pro 4. My motherboard is Gigabyte Aorus Ultra, I've 9900k CPU and Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB RAMs.

If I talk about air cooler, my only question is about if these RAM is suitable for DRP4. Any ideas?

Btw, to tell the truth I want to go with liquid cooler because of 9900k. But I'm afraid of liquid leaks. There is a lot of topic on the net about liquid coolers leaks. That scared me a lot. Is there anyone who uses NZXT Kraken x62 long enough? I also wonder about how long it will work without problems? Some people says that kraken x62 is most likely to malfunction in 1 year...

Thank you.

Depends on the board. You could always swap the fans too so intel of being on the right and centre as you look into the case the fans are on the left and centre of the cooler

Does it affect performance of cooler?

Would say negligible, it’s a 200W+ cooler it shouldn’t have any issue keeping a lid on the 9900K. To be safe you could always get a Dark Rock slim that’s still 180W.
