I was wondering if the NH-D14 will be able to fit in the Corsair Carbide 300R. If so, would I still have enough room to install 2 140mm fans on the side panel?

Thanks in advance for your responses, they will be greatly appreciated.

An NH-D14 cooler would fit in the 300r. @ 13:58 in the video he said he's tested it and it fits fine. =) I also measured my 300r and though it does look tight it would fit. The width of the cooler is 160mm and the corsair 300r is around 210mm in width, so it shouldn't be a problem.

i have a similar question. I dont think the case itself is the issue, im using the GA z87x ud4h in the 300r and it seems that it would interfere with where the RAM sits. Anyone know what the distance is from the heatsink to the radiator and fans itself so it would give enough clearance for the RAM to fit under it?

Clearance inside a chassis is essential to enthusiasts, in this section we will be looking at all areas to reveal just how flexible 300R really is.

First off – the CPU cooler. Here 300R can accommodate the Noctua NH-U12P pictured. This CPU cooler is 158mm in height and there isn’t a great deal of remaining clearance so the bigger flagships like Noctua NH-D14 and Thermalright Silver Arrow which are 160mm in height could well struggle to fit.

I own it , and I don't think it will fit in your case.
