Case: ABKO NCORE ASURA

RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 3000 CL15

located in South Korea, and I’m currently shopping on Danawa which shows different prices on different shops. My budget will be $100

Some good options include:

Mugen 5: http://prod.danawa.com/info/?pcode=5002477&cate=11330256

Fuma 2: http://prod.danawa.com/info/?pcode=8918600&cate=11330256

So I’m trying to buy a cooler to cool off my ryzen 3700x, so I thought Noctua nh d15 will be a good choice. The problem is the case, it says the maximum height of the cpu cooler is 159 mm while the nh d15’s height is 165 mm. Should I be concerned about this? If I should can you guys give me an alternative cooler similar to the nh15 but smaller? Thanks!

Maybe use my pc while the case is opened? (Probably a dumb idea?)

it would help to know the case

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Hey, so I’m trying to buy a new air cooler for my 3700x. Originally I planned to buy the Nh d15, but the height of the cooler was 165 mm instead of 159mm (my case’s max height). So any small cooler with the similar performance as the d15?

I'm using the NH-U12A on a 3900X and it's fantastic.

 

Sorry. I'll leave now.

Can the NH-U12A also be a good option?

Yeah, it's excellent if you don't mind spending more but it isn't much better than the LGMRT unless you're interested in the NH-U12A for the easier installation, longer warranty, and better fans.
