Hey guys!

New to PCs and I'm currently planning my first build and was wondering if there's a tool or a guideline to figure out if a CPU cooler is compatible with the RAM sticks.


The cooler would be the AMD R5 2600x stock cooler (Wraith Spire)

The RAM is G.Skill Aegis DIMM Kit 16GB (2x8GB), DDR4-3200

Motherboard is gonna be the ASRock B450M-HDV R4.0


Merry Christmas!

Every stock cooler will never have any problem with the ram stick. Their size is normal. Unless if you buy any other cooler with big fan and big heatpipe. And closed liquid cooler for cpu is smaller than stock cooler
