Will Fractal Core 2500 support Noctua NH-D14

[sonyzz]

nh-d14 is 160mm tall and on fractal's website they claim core 2500 can support up to 162mm coolers, but is someone tried to fit this bad boy in there?

According to partpicker, it fits just fine

There is a russian video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZE6GAcKU4ro and the guy in comments states that he can close the case but, i thought i maybe ask in forum, maybe some members had or have similar case and same cooler, btw its not for me - for my brother, my full tower case supports up to 195mm

Installed NH-D14 to my brother's Fractal Design Core 2500 Case and can ensure that the case can fit NH-D14 since from heat pipes to actual door itself is 2-3mm gap left, and front fan NF-P12 was sitting on G.Skill Ripjaws X 40mm tall ram modules was not overhanging above heatpipes, i think can use 45mm tall ram but above that you can only use middle fan, and btw i swapped middle fan - NF-P14 FLX to NF-A15 PWM and front fan NF-P12 to NF-P12 PWM since Sabertooth FX990 R2.0 mobo was running 3 pin fans on full speed when connected to CPU and CPU OPT fan headers, case fan headers are ok for 3 pin and 4 pin fans tho.
