Looking around and it seems my go to NH-D14, NH-C14 and Silver Arrow CPU coolers are not listed as compatible with the Maximus V Gene. Anyone have any recommendations on high end air coolers that are known to work?
Noctua are GREAT Air Coolers!like the one im using.... keeps my i7-2600k cool..
i7-2600k I Maximus IV Gene-Z/Gen3 I Noctua NH-U12P SE2 I 4x4Gb 1600 G.Skill RipjawsX I 500Gb Seagate Barracuda, 2x500Gb WD Caviar Blue, 1TB WD Caviar Green I Powercolor HD 7870 PCS+ I XFX 650W XXX Edition I Aerocool Rs-9 Devil Red
Mine is good to but the 3 pin fans are no good for fan expert II with cpu Headers
Maximus V Gene - 3570k@4.4 - Noctua NH C14 - GTX 670 DC2T
Corsair Vengance 2x4Gb - 2xForce3 240Gb Raid 0 - Sugo SG01B F
Cooler Master 850w silent pro - 2x Redwing 80mm PWM
AIR COOLED BABY
Yeah, I know the Noctua and Thermalright products I posted are great HSF's, my question though is which ones fit/are compatible with the V Gene motherboard and don't collide with an installed GPU?
