Big Shurikan on ASUS Rampage II Gene.
The ram (slot A2) first one is covered by the cooler. But for me it doesn't matter as there is a lifetime garantee on the memory. Also after some training it's no big deal to take out the mob for replacing it. This is on the other hand necassary to do when mounting the Big Shurikan as the space between board and cooler is narrow and very hard to push the pins down even when the board is free from the chassi. Intel arrangement.
More information You are able to see in my picture Album when changing and of my first computer project. Trying fan cooling i7 940. Still things outstanding for completing and success. Small chassi=no space.
New in this forum I hope it's done correctly by me.
If not let me know.
Obs: First slot Ram---- View mount.--------- Mark Fans lokation
