Hello! Sorry if this is the wrong section, between motherboards and coolers being in separate sections and the fact im not after the usual recommendation on a cooler but wondering how it fits... I hope general hardware will do
My motherboard is an Intel DX58SO, the configuration has the ram above the CPU. Commonly it is to the right. I am interested in buying a coolermaster v10 but I want to know first, can it fit beside the RAM. Does anyone have this configuration so I can be sure that the ram is not pushed by the cooler. The motherboard has 4 memory slots, the closest one and the second share a channel, then the third and fourth have their own channels. Populating the farthest 3 allow for optimal tripple channel configuration. The cooler completely covers the first slot (no problem), but the memory chip in the second is bent considerably the memory is kingstons T1.. (big ones) so if anyone can tell me about how far over the v10 cooler goes onto the memory slots that would be great, remember my memory is above the CPU.
the extended part of the cooler will not be going over the memory but across to where the northbridge is (or should I call it.. eastbridge )
Yes I have checked the dimensions online but I want to be certain as this is a biiiig cooler. My CPU is one very toasty i7 920, and the cooler looks niiice so i probably wont be interested in anything else plus the northbridge is also not the coolest one ive had so this cooler covers that with its big sideways thing that would conventionally cool the RAM..
But anyway, does it fit!?
Thanks!!
