Dark rock 4 clearance problem

[liakouri094]

Hello everyone.Im building my first pc and i have already half of the components. 

Meshify c tg

I7 8700 

Asus tuf gaming pro h370

Dark rock 4.

From what i can see the clearance with ram is 23.15 mm so its almost impossible to fill all 4 dimms with ram.Can i change the fan of the cooler to make it an exhaust near the rear fan of the case or this will dramatically decrease the performance?i know that i can move the fan upwards but this will give another 10mm of room for ram.And ive heard moving the fan will decrease efficiency.can anyone help me on what to do?(cpu cooler is sealed so im also thinking of returning it and getting something like aio)Thanks.

Yes, you can mount it in pull but performance would probably be slightly worse. You can try it out and compare it with raising to the fan to see which performs better.

If you want to return the cooler and want recommendations, tell us what ram you're using and where you're shopping / located.

First of all thanks for the quick reply.I leave in Greece i can find pretty much anything in ram and cooling.As of ram i would like to have some rgb to compliment the dark tinted tempered glass of meshify c.(trident z rgb,corsair led).As of cooling im more interested in small form factor>quitness>build quility.I choose dark rock 4 because of quitness and built quality.thanks.

A PR Slim should be plenty for cooling already: https://www.skroutz.gr/s/10106472/Be-Quiet-Pure-Rock-Slim.html
