Thanks! I followed the "It has a bigger number so it probably wouldn't fit" logic so i didn't even look at that one.

The one with the S in the end has a design specific for RAM clearance and only 1 fan. Performance is within 5% of NH-D15 with 2 fans

Hi guys,

I need a new cooler because the one i currently have(Scythe Katana 4) isn't good enough for my FX 9370. The issue I have is that I am not sure if NH-D14 would fit over the HyperX Beast ramsticks that I have. Does anyone know if it fits or not?

Thanks in advance!

The easy solution is to get a NH-D15S which has pretty great RAM clearance as monster towers go

We have a NEW and GLORIOUSER-ER-ER PSU Tier List Now. (dammit @LukeSavenije stop coming up with new ones)

You can check out the old one that gave joy to so many across the land here

If you're worried about ram clearance I Would go for the NH-D15.

It does if you lower the fan all the way down into the heatsink.
