RE: Since when did CPU coolers get so (D)RAM picky?
I believe the aftermarket cooler you are using is a lot bigger than the AMD Spectre coolers right? (I'm just going off looks here). But yeah, you have a great point. With so much variation in ram... Some being small and sleek and some having massive heatsinks, so many different CPU sockets and sizes, and so many different purpose coolers.... We definitely need some more info!
Yes, the Cooler Master Hyper T4 is much bigger:
While AMD Stock coolers are pretty tiny in comparison:
That's really frustrating... I've heard the AMD coolers are amazing for their size and the fact they are air cooled, but I haven't actually seen any stats. It's not like you can test CPU coolers before you buy them... You sorta just have to hope they will fit
