I currently have have an ASUS SABERTOOTH Z77 motherboard equipped with Intel's i7-3770K processor and want to get the most out of this build (overclock). The system itself is only in a Mid-ATX, so Liquid Cooling is kind-of out of the picture.. and spacing is an issue (somewhat). Currently I am using the stock Heatsink that came with the CPU, but due to performance issues I definitely intend to overclock this CPU earlier then I had intended (like Today*). My main concern however, is the RAM ports. I noticed that the CPU sits closer to the RAM slots than my previous LGA 775 build and therefore am concerned that if I invest in a "Heavy-Duty" CPU fan it may prove to be problematic for my 4x RAM plan (currently borrowing 2x).
What CPU Fan should I invest in for this build, without having to worry about spacing or overlapping of components, to get the most out of my rig--or at least >4.4GHz (w/o worry of stability issues)?
??
Thank You.
-Also, I seldom use the internet,, but aren't there Comparison Charts of peoples who have run Side-By-Side tests to confirm which components are better suited for one-another?
