NZXT Kraken X62 4 Populated DIMM Slots Compatibility

Hi,

I'm looking at ordering the NZXT Kraken X62 but have some concerns regarding compatibility. I've read reports that the large block can cover one of the DIMM slots. I don't think this would be an issue with 2 modules in dual channel but I have 4. Could anyone give some advice on whether I need to select a different cooler or memory configuration.

Thanks.

Thanks! Was just making sure as the block is quite large and has some issues eg..

Yeah, I have an issue with my MSI Mortar Z270m and the X62, the tubes do press on the DIMM closest to the block. It seems to work, though you have to get over the initial fear factor when installing the memory.

Ah, I see. At least it doesn't stop the memory slot from being populated then. Looking forward to trying it out.
