600t white + nf-s12b by the side + nh-d14?

hey guys. quick question (i hope this is the right section). i've been looking around the net for quite some time now, been seeing a lot of people using the 600t white with a noctua nh d14-- but so far, i haven't seen anyone with the same case and cpu cooler attaching side fans.

so my question is if i have a 600t white, and a(an?) nh-d14, and i attach four nf-s12bs on the side mesh, will the nh-d14 touch the side fans?

notes: i've seen someone attach a side fan to a nzxt phantom while having a nh-d14 as a cooler. it just barely fits, like a 2-5mm clearance. the nzxt phantom is 222mm wide (http://www.nzxt.com/new/products/crafted_series/phantom) and the dude used a 20mm thick fan. refer to this topic

on the other hand, the nf-s12b is 25mm thick and the 600t is 265mm wide. a bit wider than the phantom so i'm guessing it COULD fit, but that might be because of the wider space on the other side of the case for wiring.

any thoughts? thanks.
 
hello. did more searching, i found pictures of someone that had a cpu cooler about 161.1mm tall and was also using four 120mm fans on the side. the nh-d14 is 160mm tall btw, so i'm guessing it'll fit after all.

You.really.don't.need.4.fans.on.the.side.panel.

Literally, front, bottom, rear and top makes sense, blows air into the case towards the GPU and CPU, and the rear/top will exhaust heat, but you don't need the side panel ones really unless you want a very cool case, neither the CPU or GPU (unless you have a Gainwaird Phantom GPU cooler or the like) will exhaust air towards the side.
 
i was concerned about cooling because i live in a tropical country and it's very hot here most of the time-- but apparently i need to get my ears and head checked for some reason. i'm stupid that way i guess, thanks anyway guys.

(i still want to see it though, four fans on the side with an nh-d14 as a cpu cooler -3-)
 
Yeah but dude it doesn't matter about how hot the country is, the heat just generally wont be going that way in the case. (Btw where do you live?

Anyway, here is a video of what it might look like (ofc the Noctuas are a different colour).

yes, i'd already watched that vid before posting here. i wasn't quite convinced yet 'cause his cooler wasn't tall, but thanks for the vid.

those fans are really noisy lol
