[SOLVED] should I put a noctua nh-d15 in a Nzxt h500?

[mangoinfinity]

with the 165mm clearance of my case and the 165mm max of the noctua, is it a good Idea to put it in my case?

You realize this post is a month old right? And that the OP never even came back to answer?

Regardless, it's likely you have tall RAM. Not everybody does. Much depends on the motherboard model. Not every board has the same memory clearance issues and most modern boards work fine with the NH-D15 so long as you don't use tall memory. Most memory is not tall these days. The majority of Corsair and G.skill DDR4 modules are short enough to not cause interference issues especially if you don't populate all four memory slots.

Just because YOU have an issue with that configuration does not mean everybody will. There are variables that will affect whether it will or will not be a problem.
