**CRYORIG is new and so is R1 cooler!**

Fan misses Ram slots but cooler just blocks top PCI-E slot.

Not sure why they do not offset the coolers up and to left (did read it had an offset of some sorts).
If R1 Ultimate is too wide at 140mm, how is U14S at 150mm width going to fit. That is 5mm farther over PCI-E socket.

Nice looking cooler but who wants 1281g = **2lb 13.186oz** thats roughly a bag of sugar hanging from your motherbroad.

If it was me l would use something to support the cooler and to relieve the weight of the mobo.

Make sure you put all the mobo screws in especially in the top half or your mobo will wrap.

Thats one of the reasons l went custom loop was the size + weight coolers were getting to cool the CPU.
Interesting.
What about the GPU weight? 0.8-0.9g plus water block weighting about the same is much heavier than 1.28g.

CPU has 75-80mm square mount spacing. with a solid back plate supporting cooler.

GPU has a plastic slot 9x92mm held on by solders traces, nothing more. In a tower configuration that means only 9mm plastic / solder and one screw on top in back to support more than 1.8g

Wouldn't GpU with H2O be applying more stress to motherboard than air cooler on CPU?

Wrong way around mate, I have that Noctua cooler and it blocks the slot, so your saying this cooler is 10mm less so may fit?

Sorry, I miss-read. :o

No, I not not say that.
But I will say if you only need another 5mm for cooler to clear PCI-E socket than R1 Ultimate or similar cooler with a width of 140mm will fit. :)
 
Cryorig is not in UK yet. But it is in EU at several reputable sites. And with price in mid-60s delivered it's a good good price for arguably the best cooler out right now. Cryorig is dealing directly with a couple of people who had some problems.. The couple of the 14mm XT140 fans have had a slight rattle and as soon as owner posted on a forum I frequent Cryorig jumped in to help. Another is having problems getting his to mount up properly (you would be amazed how many people can't mount a cooler properly) and again Cryorig jumped in requesting they email their info so a new mount could be sent.

I had an imperfection in the paint on the backside of mount and reported it just so they would be aware of it for quality control. Had to threaten them with bodily harm to stop them from sending another. :D
