NH-U12P SE2 Question

[VanquishUK]

Hello,

I was wondering what the clearance for the ram is like on the NH-U12P SE2. I read that you have to mount this cooler with the fans facing towards the top of the case and to towards the back. I have kingston limited edition ram and i believe these dims are around 3cm high so i was wondering if this fan would be ok and if not what would you suggest for around the same price.

Thanks

I dont see any reason for it to cause issues as its just a single tower unit it should clear almost everything

Ok just making sure as its not really low profile ram thanks for the quick reply.

The NH-U12P SE2 offers a suggested 4cm max height for memory. For example, the Corsair Dominators being tall RAM would have the user remove the top heatsink to fit under the CPU cooler if the fan were to be over top of the memory slots.

For your reference, you may take a look at this section posted by Noctua from their website.
