Hello.
A friend of mine just bought a new cpu cooler to replace the stock one. He has 2 high profile vengeance ram modules in dual channel out of the 4 available slots.
Stupidly he didnt check or ask me to check if it will block the slots and now the new cooler will block the 2 left slots.
To explain ill use this diagram below.
[cpu] [1][2] [3][4] (1,2,3,4 are ram slots)
Currently the ram is installed in slot 1 and 3
The cooler will block slot 1 and 2
The question is that if i move the ram to slot 3 and 4 will it still run properly or will he need to get some low profile modules.
Thanks
