Kuhler H20 620

I think i have decided on a CPU cooler , Since i have 4 sticks of corsair vengeance. i wanted to be safe with a cooler that would fit. is the Kuhler H20 620 a good choice?


thanks

No, a heatsink such as a cooler master hyper 212 EVO will outperform the 620.

Thing is i have been trying to figure out if that cooler would fit or not. i know it would fit the case i just have the ram issue

I rarely suggest a closed loop cooler for anyone, but many times, tall RAM DIMMs seem to be one scenario that you almost can recommend one.

Have you looked at some of the Zalman coolers? They are often able to be oriented in different directions (left/right or up/down) which might give you the clearance. (I'm drawing a blank as to other cooler options ATM).

Never looked into Zalman coolers. are they good?

It will fit, I built a system for my friend using the exact same cooler with the exact same ram and it fit perfectly. As well, you can adjust the fan to acommodate larger modules.

The Hyper 212+/EVO won't fit the taller heatsinks

Just got the H20 620, Safer for me since i know it will fit no prob.. it may not be the best cooler but it should work great for me

I should fit just fine I have a Kuhler 620 and Vengeance together and I have been very happy with the results.

How is the cooling on it for you? and yeah i did not wanna take the chance on a big cooler and not have it fit. i like the idea of a looped system, may even go for the real thing later on down the road
