OCZ XTC & Zalman CNPS9700 ?

[Chris.Skittz]

Hello people.

I'm currently lookin got build a new computer as the one I have at the moment isn't capable of the things I now need to do with computers.

I have a system in mind and just have a few questions about cooling.

I'm looking to put my system into the Coolermaster CM 690 (Windowed) and will be using an EVGA 780i mobo.

The issue that has been raised is will an OCZ XTC Ram cooler fit in this system with a Zalman CNPS9700. I'm trying to avoid water cooling at all costs and desperately want the things above in my system.

If anyone has any ideas please let me know. I'm willing to change the Zalman for something else if required.

Thanks, Chris.

Definitely

The 9700 doesn't hang over the memory at all

I have the 9500, the supplied fan mate VR knocks about 1200RPM off full on bringing it to silent, and I mean silent. Temps barely unaffected (2° if that). Had this one in 3 different builds, if it ever fails I`ll have another one

I recomend the Noctua NH-U12P cooler, Its as good as a TRUE and cheaper, on some tests i think it may have performed slightly better even
