Hello All,

So I just saw the video from Linus on the Glacer 240L and I it looks like a great cooler to have in my build. I am going with the Asus Maximus VI Hero, but from what I can see it looks like I loose the first red Dimm slot (slot near the CPU). I am going with G.Skill Ripjaws C Series ram (Black Friday purchase).

Is this true, or would I still have enough clearance?

I know the Glacer 240L is very similar to the Swiftech H220.

Thank you in advance for the help.

Here is the video:

Look at the Video by LinusTech you can rotate it in any degree facing up down left and right .

Also they should make more AIO Water coolers i like to extend my cooling.

It's only a plastic badge sitting on top- you should be able to pop it off and glue it back down in the right orientation ;)

I left the plastic Swiftech one off on mine.... to my surprise the pump had a Swiftech logo cast into the pump body :)
