ram clearance and cpu cooler

[Josh_159]

i have i5-7600k ready to be built

i have corsair vengeance LED DDR4 ram

and z270-A Prime motherboard

i have just ordered a dark rock pro 3 cpu cooler and worried about the Clearance?

will it fit? need to know as soon as anyone can answer because will need to cancel my order xD

this dark rock?

how tall is that led ddr4?

looks like this dark rock asks for ddr low profile

1. You didn't mention RAM frequency.
2. Motherboard will be fully compatible but it's about the case if it can fit in, which one do you have?

 

[atljsf]

the op didn't asked for speeds and mainboard, he asked if the cooler will fit with the ram or ram or coller needs to be changed

 

[Ali Tauseef]

My bad, I missed that.

 

[atljsf]

it happens to all of us, more to me than to you i'm sure

i have this ram

apparently according online its 49mm tall

 

[atljsf]

it is not that high module

in this mainboard, your mainboard, right?

looks like in the worst case you will have to use ram slots 3 and 4

thas cooler, iirc you cna use it with only 1 fan, correct?

looks like you will be fine but perhaps you will have to play a bit with fans and ram slots

decided not to risk it and just got a cryorig h5 universal xD

thanks anyway i will keep this in mind incase i dont like the h5

 

[atljsf]

the cryorig is taller and slimmer, and won't block the view of the led ram you choose, perhaps is a better option, yes

a bit pricey both coolers
