i have a GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3 with CORSAIR Vengeance 16GB (4 x 4GB) and im wanting to use a Phanteks PH-TC14PE_BK 140mm but i dont know if it will fit with my ram any help would be great... oh and i have the Corsair Carbide Series 400R case thanx

My ripjaws fit under my silver arrow, I lifted the first fan a bit. Idk if the phanteks is that flexible though...
As far as I know the noctua nh d14 isn't able to lift it high enough.

the easiest thing to do is to get RAM that does not impede coolers at all. G2, Hyperx, XMS3, and the like.

well thanx i guess ill just get it and see

or you could get a corsair hydro series, and not worry about clearance at all.

i had the h100 didnt lik it very much

 

[FuryRosewood]

what did you not like about it? i think its far easier to deal with than the h50 was

 

[JeremyJMO]

it was loud and i even changed out the fans to Corsair Air Series SP120 fans i was thinkin about tryin the new h100i

 

[FuryRosewood]

did you use the fan controller at all? on low-medium is quiet...even with the stock fans.

i guess i got a bad one it never worked they would always be on high
