Noctua NH-D14 vs Corsair H70

[kenox]

---

Ahem.
As somebody who owns the aforementioned Noctua cooler, it never looked huge for me.

Because of the immense size and the unusual emptiness of it (look closer and it looks like there's no video card at all!), it never bothered me. It'll look tiny because of the huge case.

If bulkiness is your worry, consider first the size of your case. Are you using a cheapo small casing? Then it will really outsize your case, thus looking it bulky and a massive space eater.

ahhh, the Raven 2.

It will look really bulky. I have a friend who owns the said case that uses the Tuniq 120 Cooler. The cooler is really huge and I have to say its bulky if you look it from afar. The good side is that because the color of the cooler is black, there's an illusion that the cooler doesn't even exist there. But let's not compare the Tuniq 120 Cooler from the Noctua cooler. There's no denying the Noctua cooler is bigger than Tuniq. Add the fact that the color of the cooler will be some grey metal sheet, then it'll look like a nuisance in a black color case haha.

Rams, that's a problem. My friend also has the same problem with the Tuniq Cooler because its blocking the fins of the memory stick. But that all depends how the mobo placed your memory slots. To make sure your rams fit, pick rams that have low vertical space. If you're a cheapsake guy, rams with no cooler (just wanna clarify, heatspreaders not cpu coolers) at all will make sure you don't have to worry about the cooler blocking your rams

But going back to your question, the cooler will really look bulky in your case. This is my own opinion though

PS: I can measure how far the base of the mobo is from the memory slot to the closest part of the cooler. Let me find my tape measure sa

PPS: Using the LGA 1155 bracket, I measured it and its around 5.5cm from the base of the board to the nearest obstructing fin. But to be safe, make it 5cm.

@personalmgt
a great help..thanks...

that's why i doubt using the noctua coz i've read some forums that their ram are hard to install coz of the noctua's size....

actually these are my plan for the cpu cooler..
1st is prolimatech
2nd is noctua
but then the modder of my case said it would be nicer if il use the hydro series

that time then ...my head is starting to explode thinking what cpu coopler i'l be using...hehehe
