I checked a pic with the dimensions of phanteks. The lower distance is 37mm and my rams are 52mm tall. Why all things are against me???
EDIT: I got Ninja'd but the same ideas really.
Right. I have the CM 212 EVO on my brothers rig and there's plenty of room. The single tower Phanteks is about the same size. I cant see there being a problem as long as you have the height for it. I don't see a problem with the cable length either, but if it's to short you should get an extension instead of rotating it. They are like $2-3 USD. not sure the Euro conversion, but cheap either way.
I don't recall if the Gigabyte board you have had issues with the FX8xxx chips or not. I would start a new post BEFORE you order it and let some of the experts discuss it. Those chips are true Heat monsters and draw ALOT of juice from the board.
It's a little bit difficult to sell them. I won't to know if the mounting kit that phanteks provide can be installed universaly. What i mean? My current corsair a50 only allowed me to install it blow from top of the case downwards. And i want a cooler blowing from front (bay area) to back(exhaust area). Is this possible at my gigabyte 970a-d3 mobo or it has a limitation of installing it one way only.
