I am considering the Noctua NH-D15 CPU cooler for a new i7-8700K build. I have a Coolermaster HAF-X case and a Vega 64 GPU. While I'm sure everything will fit if I buy the correct low profile memory, I wonder if anyone has any experience with these big coolers causing trouble. I move my case around maybe once a month to open the side and blow out any dust etc. because we live in a dusty environment. My current cooler in a Coolermaster 212 which is not so big as the Noctua. I ask because I may even take it outside and use the air compressor on it to clean at times, so it will get picked up and moved around.
I try to be careful with it of course, I'm just interested if there are any horror stories about damage or having the cooler crack the mobo etc.
Happy Halloween!
