Motherboard, Case, and CPU fan Compability

Wehr_Wolff

My main question is if the https://de.pcpartpicker.com/product/XJbCmG/msi-b450-a-pro-max-atx-am4-motherboard-b450-a-pro-max
is compatible with these fans and how much the Fan would block certain things. Like Ram Clearance and so on. Or how I could mount the fan to not block certain things
This is the case https://de.pcpartpicker.com/product/qvF48d/be-quiet-silent-base-801-window-silver-atx-mid-tower-case-bgw30
and the above mentioned motherboard and this Fan. (CPU is a Ryzen 7 3700x)

This case https://de.pcpartpicker.com/product/QdXYcf/phanteks-eclipse-p400a-digital-atx-mid-tower-case-ph-ec400atg_dbk

with the above mentioned motherboard and these fans. (CPU is a Ryzen 5 3600)

Ram for both would be https://de.pcpartpicker.com/product/ckvbt6 diffrent Frequenzy versions of this kit. First one with 3600 Mhz and second with 3200 Mhz

Hello,

 

You can usually place the 1st fan higher to allow better ram compatiblity but then you need a bigger case, you can also move the 1st fan place it in the "3rd" slot or complety remove it.

 

Also they usually are compatible with low profile ram.

If you buy vengeance or similar low profile ram, you will have no issues with any of the heatsinks and fan placement.

Which ram would you recommend then? Because I could just buy new ram and give the one I get to a friend. What would be your recommendation. Because i only find 16 gb ddr3 low profile ram?

The Corsair as mentioned above.

Or Crucial Ballistix Sport LT is also low profile. It comes in White as well.

Other option would be to get a cooler that doesn't block the ram slots like the ones below.
