Will this CPU Cooler fit my case?

Groxxy · May 10, 2014

Hi everyone
I am building my dad a new PC as he urgently needs one and I was wondering would the noctua NH-D14 work with the corsair 200R?
Or is the case just too small?
And it would be compatible with the i5-3570k? No?
My MOBO is ASRock Z77 Extreme4 ATX LGA1155 Motherboard
Thanks

Yeah should fit just fine. Just watch the clearance for the RAM. You need to get low profile sticks (they do not have high heat spreaders).

Noctua NH-D14 has a height of 160mm. Corsair 200R has cooler clearance upto 165mm. So there is 100% compatibility between Corsair 200R and Noctua NH-D14.

Following is the sockets compatibility of this cooler for CPUs:
Intel LGA1366, LGA1156, LGA1155, LGA1150, LGA775, LGA2011 on request, Asus X-socket™ & AMD AM2, AM2+, AM3, AM3+, FM1, FM2, FM2+ (backplate required)

As you can see, LGA1155 is listed so there is 100% compatibility between the CPU i5-3570k and Noctua NH-D14

Okay thanks for the clearance tip
I have to get LP ram for my build due to the H100i didn't think of that in this build.

Groxxy :

If you intend to use two rams then there is no RAM clearance issue with NH-D14. However, with four rams definitely you would need LP RAMs but in that case you can switch to NH-U14S and will still get good temps. I've the same issue. I'm using four RAMs and that is why I chose NH-U14S and no issue at all there.
