usama7 Posted November 9, 2013 Posted November 9, 2013 The motherboard you are planning to use is an ATX variant and the case to which you referred to only supports m-ATX. You sure you mentioned the correct motherboard and/or case? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

usama7 Posted November 9, 2013 Posted November 9, 2013 In that case, I dont think it will be a problem for the ram. I have the same gskill ares ram and they are low profile. As far as I can tell, the cooler will clear the rams but I dont know about the gpus. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pteroduck Posted November 9, 2013 Posted November 9, 2013 Yeah, i'm worried about them. The cooler is big and it might touch the gpu's Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
usama7 Posted November 9, 2013 Posted November 9, 2013 I dont think it will be a problem as they usually have just enough space for aftermarket coolers. If you have the cooler, try installing it and see what happens but I think it will probably work out fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pteroduck Posted November 9, 2013 Posted November 9, 2013 I would try that but im using the full z77 board :< Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
usama7 Posted November 9, 2013 Posted November 9, 2013 Then why dont you make an estimate based on the pictures to see if the cooler would fit? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pteroduck Posted November 9, 2013 Posted November 9, 2013 i have, but i just wanted to make sure, i checked on noctura's site as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
usama7 Posted November 9, 2013 Posted November 9, 2013 Then take a leap of faith. I still think it will fit fine as its a performance series board and they usually have the foresight that people will use high-end coolers on their boards.
