Noctua NH-D15 PCI-E LANE BLOCK

[xElior]

Hi,
I am going to get soon a new PC and now I am picking my parts and I want to make sure everything is going to fit.
As said on title, I want to know if the Air cooling of Noctua NH-D15 will block one of my PCI-E lanes, because it's pretty crutial to me as I'm going to do add more RAM sticks in future.

Motherboard: Asus Z170-DELUXE
Case: Antec S10 Aluminum ATX Full Tower Black

I am pretty sure that there will be enough space in this case as it's a full tower ATX one.
If the NH-D15 will block one of the lanes, I will probably go for NH-D15s.

Thanks ahead

According to the manufacturer http://noctua.at/en/products/cpu-cooler-retail/nh-d15.html?comp=1 the NH-D15 will not block the pcie slot. You are fine.

Oh wow, really? so it won't block the slot at every motherboard? that's great.
Thanks
