I’m looking at 5950x + Noctua DH-15 + 128gb (4x32gb) double height DDR4 3600 memory modules from either Corsair or GSkill (such as the Gskill Ripjaw Series V 32gb modules).
My concern is that this cooler won’t work with the taller double height RAM? I know that I can move the fan up, and I do have a somewhat large case (Lian Li A71F) - but is it enough?
As well, should I consider the smaller DH-15S model, or is it too much of a compromise with the 5950x heat? I’d prefer not to go AIO this time around, but I’m also not against it if it is what is best.
