Looking for a good cooler for my 8150

[Archoson]

I have a problem though, at the moment I am using a Sabertooth 990fx board with the Corsair Vengeance ram, I already looked at the Noctua NH-D14, but according to Noctua it is not compatible with my ram. I prefer air cooling over water, 'cause I am just old school like that, and I have to space in my case to a radiator. I am willing to buy a new case for that, but I wanna do that as a last resort, so for now, I am looking for a good air cooler, that will fit.

What do you mean you can't fit the NH-D14 with the Vengeance series!???

That's with the Dominator series, which is taller than the vengeance line.

Wow, it fits amazingly. I saw on the Noctua website that it isn't compatible, a tear came to my eye at that moment as I love Noctua. But if it fits, getting that ***. xD

Still a little scared to get it though, since the site says it ain't compatible.

The fans on the NH-D14 can be elevated

Install your ram first, THEN install the cooler!

Just looked up a video and saw the way the fans are installed, definately getting the NH-D14, my computer is going to be happy as all its fans are from Noctua as well. xD
