CPU air cooler compatible with LGA 2011-v3 with decent space for Ram

GamerBRAZIL · Jul 20, 2016

I really need a cpu-air cooler that doesnt hit or annoy my Ram sticks, my motherboard is the Asus X99-A 2011-v3

i was thinking about the Thermaltake NiC C5 but it is only compatible with the 2011 boards, not the 2011-v3.

So if you guys know a good cooler for my cpu that gives decent space to my Ram sticks, please let me know. sorry for my bad english.

Well Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo and 212X are pretty good. Noctua NH-D15 is the best and can be adjusted for ram clearance. http://noctua.at/en/products/cpu-cooler-retail/nh-d15/comp

Kingston said "According to Noctua specifications the minimum space for RAM clearance is 64mm in single fan mode and 32mm in dual fan mode. The Hyper X Predator's heat-spreaders are 55.05mm in height. You will need to install the NH-D15 in single fan mode for proper clearance." that is sad, using in single fan mode is kinda of waste, seems like i will need to go with a water cooler.

Single vs Double isn't a huge difference in temps.
