Anyone using a Noctua NH-D14 with Corsair Vengeance RAM?

[BillTheButcher]

Now that I've got all the other components sorted I want to change my stock 2600k cooler for something decent.

Ideally I'd like a Noctua NH-D14 but according to their compatibility list it won't fit because of the heat spreaders on my Corsair Vengeance RAM.

I've got 2x 4GB in A2 and B2 which leaves the slot closest to the CPU socket empty so I wondered if the Noctua might fit.

If it won't fit then the Thermalright Silver Arrow seems to be the next best choice but I can't find anything on their site about whether this will have the same problem with the heat spreaders.

Can anyone help with either of these questions?

Cheers.

Cheers for the link.

Yes, the Vengeance spreaders stick up a lot further than the Ripjaw ones in that clip.

Back to the drawing board...

After losing patience with my noisy H60 pump I've decided to try a Noctua NH-D14 instead.

I'm also getting some of the LP Corsair Vengeance RAM mentioned above so that the Noctua will actually fit.

I've got a couple of Noctua NF-P14 case fans to put in as well.

I'll be interested to see if all of this helps with the system temps as my 590 is struggling to keep itself cool at the moment.

Yes, this is what I've ordered.
