Hi there,
"Specking" out my new system to build. Through researching I see I might have some issues if I go with some type of G.Skill RAM which I am leaning towards. The hardest part has been selecting RAM for my system. I am looking for some good 1600 or 2000 RAM (in an 8GB - 2 x 4GB configuration?) Seems the Flares are designed specifically for the 1090T?
I am planning the following build around my AMD Phenom II 6-core 1090T:
1.ASUS Crosshair IV Formula AM3 AMD 890FX SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard
2. Noctua NH-D14 120mm & 140mm SSO CPU Cooler
3. G.SKILL Flare Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2000 (PC3 16000) Desktop Memory Model F3-16000CL9D-8GBFL
The large cooler has 44mm of clearance but I cannot find any size dimensions for your RAM. Those "fins" look awfully high. Will there be room? Are the heat sinks removable? Anybody have a combination similar to mine that works?
Thanks for any input,
Clutch
