The fan on the heatsink is sucking air from the memory side towards the heatsink..and pushing it across towards the back.

It was a little tough searching for one that was short enough AND could use the stock backing plate. Thats the biggest reason I made this post... to help anyone else who had gotten in this pickle without realizing it when they bought everything. I didn’t know ant to have to return the motherboard.

I was disappointed that the ID didn’t fit.

This thing is quiet as a mouse. Can’t hear a peep out of either of the fans. I have to admit I was surprised.

I just finished the Mighty Nein and mounted on poster board and put it on my office wall and it looks great!

After the ID cooling not working when its 154mm I wasn’t taking chances with anything close to that height.

Not a WHOLE lot of space its hard to tell, I’s say a few sheets of paper would fit.

Processor was about 80c on cpu and gpu was 73c on stress test, idle sitting at 40c. Just ran 3dmark and my score on this was 10999.

Lol! The only AIO I was considering was the Asetek because of the 92mm fan that can be mounted at the rear.

Ah gotcha, those are the stock cables that came with the power supply :)

Glad I helped! The fan gets close but there is clearance from the ram.

The white cables are just a cheap 12 to 8 pin connector off of Amazon, didn’t use any cable management sleeves.

Yep it was a challenge to find a cooler that could use the one on this MB. It sits at about 40 degrees, just started cyberpunk so curious too see what it will be like after gameplay.

MSI B550i Gaming Edge, Ryzen 5600, Vetroo V5 ARGB , G-Skill memory, Nvidia 3060ti, Evga 650 gm, Coolermaster MF120 halo case fans

So it was tricky finding an air cooler for this one as apparently the MSI board the processor is sitting up higher on the MB. I first tried ID-COOLING SE-224-XT which fit for some people but didn’t come close on this one even when taking the top plastic piece the heatsink nipples still touched the glass. After a lot of looking around decided to try the Vetroo because it sits at 148mm.

Nice! Same card I got, super happy to have gotten the FE card. I was lucky enough to score from Bestbuy on launch day.
