Memory clearance is something which many system builders and enthusiasts are eager to discover since this will ascertain whether a memory kit will be compatible with the CPU cooler or not. To demonstrate this, a low profile memory kit is used.
Dimensions:
165 x 150 x 52 mm (without fan)
165 x 150 x 78 mm (with fan)
Installation complete, a thin single tower stands tall
Even with fan attached, memory clearance is great
Just as Noctua claim, the U14S presents no memory compatibility issues whatsoever. Thanks to its design both sets of slots are clear of any obstruction. We didnt even need to bring out the measuring ruler to demonstrate clearance distance since the cooler doesnt hang over the slots at all, on either side.
No overhang whatsoever on either side
