On account of its uneven design, the NH-U12A doesn’t overhang the RAM slots on Intel LGA115x and AMD AM4 based mostly motherboards, which ensures easy accessibility to the modules and 100% compatibility with tall heatspreaders. On LGA2066, the rear fan will overhang the RAM slots on the left-hand aspect of the socket, so RAM modules mustn’t exceed 42mm in top.*

Basic 120mm tower dimension for glorious case and PCIe compatibility

Standing 158mm tall, the NH-U12A is brief sufficient to suit most fashionable mid- or high-end tower circumstances.
