grim4g63t Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Ok, its been awhile, (since the launch of the P55 chips) that i've upgraded. well I moved to the lga2011 platform , and got the rampage iv. now today i got my tracking but i havent ordered my ram yet and im looking at my case and going, wait... will it fit? as to what im talking about the board has 4 ram slots on each side of the MB... and i notice that my H80 is close to the current water block (i plan on reusing said block LOVE IT). I have the Thermaltake Armor+ the big case, i havent ordered any memory as im confused with asus QVL and what works and what doest. and now i have a fear that i cant use my H80 as it might be close or over said ram slots. I know the bord is an extended ATX but now im scared lol.. :confused: :bigeyes: Any input would be nice, and whats a good 16gig kit "NOW" that i could throw another set later to make 32gig? and doesn't brake the bank (150ish)??

HOODedAssault Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 I don't think you'll have any issue if you just go with low profile ram. Vengeance low pro for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim4g63t Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 yeah, only thing to do, is tear it down, mount the board and cpu and see what happens...

peanutz94 Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Looking at your PIC it's a little hard to tell if you would have the room or option...But can you mount the H80 above the MB where the top fan is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim4g63t Posted March 2, 2013 Author Share Posted March 2, 2013 yeah, that was an option till i looked again and with the Armor+ case the PSU is above it... I Figured it out thou... cost me 167 but just got a new case lol... figured the Armor+ has done its job, time for a newer one, and maybe get the H100 cooler down the road.
