RAM Clearance

zeenoxious · January 27

Hi,

First of all idk where to put this, here or in the ram section.

I'm planning to get a Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE, but idk if it'll have enough clearance for my Teamgroup T-Force Delta RGB 32GB DDR5 ram.

It won't fit with the front fan. You'll need to either move the front fan to the rear or do what I did and only have the middle fan installed.

Or just raise the front fan up a few millimeters.

Yea or that if you don't mind it looking a bit wonky. If you do go that route, keep in mind the case clearance as with these coolers there's usually only about 1-2cm between it and the side panel.

What other white ddr5 32gb 6000mhz rgb ram kits do you suggest that'll actually fit?

Most RGB memory I'm aware of on DDR5 is extra tall for whatever reason. Realistically though, if you're getting this cooler, you shouldn't try to get RGB RAM. The fan will cover it so you can't see the RGB anyway.
