Question Noctua NH-D12L Chromax Black. Measure right and left cooler.

[Oldschool296]

I have a Asrock Z590 OC Formula motherboard and i suspect that this cooler will overhang the memorys. I have G.SKILL Trident Z Royal Series (Intel XMP) DDR4 RAM 32GB (2x16GB) 4000MT/s CL18-22-22-42 1.40V Desktop Computer Memory UDIMM - Silver (F4-4000C18D-32GTRS). And as they look good i do not want the Noctua to overhang.

Here is a photo that i found on the web with a bigger Noctua NH-D15 Air cooler. Width (with fan) 150 mm. It overhangs the memory's huge. There is two smaller models. Noctua NH-D12L Chromax Black that has a width of 125mm.

Noctua NH-D12L Chromax Black. The right cooler seems a little smaller then the left. Does anyone have one and can measure the left and right in mm?​

There is a smaller model to The NH-D9L chromax.black is is an all-black version of Noctua’s award-winning NH-D9L compact dual tower CPU cooler that has been designed to provide excellent quiet cooling performance at a height of only 110mm. Its comparably low profile (15mm lower than classic 9cm tower coolers such as the NH-U9S) doesn't only guarantee full 3U compliance but also makes the NH-D9L ideal for compact HTPC and Small Form Factor cases that have airflow paths parallel to the mainboard. Thanks to its 95x95mm footprint, the NH-D9L clears the RAM and PCIe slots on all Intel based and most AMD based ITX mainboards. The included NF-A9 premium fan supports automatic speed control via PWM for outstanding quietness of operation and a second, optional NF-A9 fan can be added for further improved performance in dual fan mode. Topped off with the trusted, pro-grade SecuFirm2™ multi-socket mounting system, Noctua’s proven NT-H1 thermal compound and full 6 years manufacturer’s warranty, the NH-D9L forms a highly compact premium package for space-restricted applications.

I don't see that measurement on the spec sheet for that cooler.

But....in my experience, Noctua is very attentive to email. I'd guess they would answer promptly if you emailed customer service.

Now i have a Cooler master 92mm and a 120mm fan to the left. 115mm or 120mm in total with the 120mm fan and then the memorys is visable, it is almost so it overhangs.

I sent them an email.

The NH-D12L does have one side that is thinner to clear the memory slots. I have one of these in my Linux AI/LLM machine. You should be okay, I would think.

Thank you. Can you measure the two sides?

Not tonight. Other plans. Maybe tomorrow.

Did you see the diagram in the specs on Noctua's site?

Yes it seems to be 65.50mm to the left from the processor base and 47.50 from the processor base to the right next to the memorys? It also seems to be 113mm wide and not 125 as stated.
