Will Corsair Dominator Platinum ram fit with this CPU cooler. I want to use 4x4gb sticks. I have ASUS Maximus VI Formula Motherboard. Thanks for help!

I use the Cosair Vengeance Memory which are about the same size and they fit under the cooler but I have to remove the cooler to change out the stick closest to the heatsink.

I had to BEND the ram heatsinks slightly for this Gen 2 Coolermaster V8. The Gen 1 fits without bending the heatsinks. This one is also more difficult to screw down. Get a sealed water unit and save yourself the aggravation.

I use Corsair RAM in the same size range and does fit underneath this huge fan. Should not be a problem.

Put the RAM sticks in first BEFORE you install this cooler. Learned that the hard way. Had gotten some ram with heatsinks that made them stick up higher than normal. Had trouble installing them cause the heat pipes on the cooler were too low.

Yes they will but make sure you install the MEMORY 1st. The first two DIMM Slots are covered up pretty tight after you install this cooler. The Cooler Master V8 is a great CPU cooler and your mboard is great. Corsair Dominator Platinum is shorter than my Corsair Blue and I'm not saying you can't remove them, just that they are tight because the fan is a beast!! Good Luck

From quick search i belive it will all Fit and work togeather, with an about 80% confidence in it willIll search each part and see,the case is Matx so it would fit their, the cpu is lga 1155, the ram would because its ddr3 ,powersupply and gcard wouldI am unsure of the cpu cooler because of its overhang. (many cpu cooler companies dont list compatibility charts like Noctua)i belive dont rely on me with this, but i belive it will fit :3

I am using 32GB of Corsair Dominator Platinum 2133 on this motherboard and changed the DRAM frequencies in the BIOS to 2133 no problem.

I don't think so the fins for this RAM are too tall for the heatsink. Edit: Yeah I agree with the rest of them saying that it really does depend on the board, but your average ATX motherboard puts the RAM slots too close to the CPU slot making it difficult for the heatsink to fit over the RAM.

Phanteks says you can use RAM sticks up to 40mm to fit under the heatsink itself, however by doing so will limit the position of your front fan. The front fan of the cooler will sit on top of your RAM so if you have tall heatspreaders and a mid-tower chassis, the front fan may protrude out of your case. To give you an idea, I'm using this cooler inside an NZXT 410 case with Avexir Core White Series RAM (38mm tall) and the front fan couldn't fit into the case. I had to purchase different RAM modules. To ensure the best flexibility possible I wouldn't buy RAM any larger than 30mm if you're using a mid-tower chassis. Full tower may not matter as much. I hope this answers your question.

the vendor may be Intel orientated and if this is the case may not have experience or knowledge of this high spec memory within an AMD system. Polite query may resolve your concern. However Corsair will have determined usage within test environment in order to state such compatability. I have used 2x4GB Corsair 1866-Upgraded to 2x8GB 1866 in first slots with orig 2x4GB temporarily in 2nd slots till further 2x8Gb aquired.Not ideal as optimum performance can only be effected with matched pairs. Yet this arrangement functions admirably for my rendering requirements in AMD environment with Sabertooth Motherboard+Asus 6870 directCu graphics card

Hello- I use "Corsair Vengeance 64GB (8x8GB) DDR3 1600 MHz (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory (CMZ64GX3M8A1600C9) by Corsair" also I am using a RamDisk and FancyCache to make my extremely excess RAM even more productive by super-speeding memory access to all of my programs. You won't regret these products, I have no issues at all!

I'd like to know the answer to this, as well. I have Corsair Dominator 3x2GB DDR3-SDRAM, and just eyed this myself.And if anyone would know, does it conflict with my Thor's Hammer HSF?

I've got the MSI G45, even with the gskill ram fins, I have enough clearance. Just install ram before cooler.

Boy, there are a lot of variables there!!! I'm on a MSI motherboard with liquid cooling and have no problems. The RAM isn't all that tall. I am making a guess but it should work...that is a very popular cooler.

The ASUS web site memory compatibility chart does not list the Corsair Dominator Platinum, but they do list the Corsair Vengeance. See http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/LGA1155/P8B75-M/P8B75-M-1866-2400DIMM-QVL.pdf The Corsair web site memory finder does not list the ASUS P8B75-M mother board. See http://www.corsair.com/en/memory-finder The memory specs for your MB are: 4 x DIMM, Max. 32GB, DDR3 MHz Non-ECC, Un-buffered Memory, Dual Channel Memory Architecture. The ASUS site lists a Corsair DDR3 8GB (2 sticks @ 4GB) Vengeance CMZ8GX3M2A1866C9 with a timing and latency of 9-10-9-27 (9) and a voltage of 1.5 as being compatible with your MB. You should be able to use any memory pairs with the same voltage, timing and latency. So it looks like the Corsair Dominator Platinum 16 GB CMD16GX3M2A1899C9 (2 sticks of 8GB) and the 8 GB CMD8GX3M2A1866C9 (2 sticks of 4GB) will work. See http://www.corsair.com/en-us/memory/dominator-platinum?memoryconfiguration=Dual%20Channel|&testedlatency=9-10-9-27| You can double up on the 16 and get 32GB (4 sticks of 8GB) of mix pairs of 16 and 8 for 24GB (2 sticks of 8 plus 2 sticks of 4). Make sure the 8GB sticks are in matching color slots and the 4GB sticks are in the other matching color slots if you go with unequal memory sticks.

Depending on how close? get a computer/metric ruler out, Mine cleared my RAM (12gb) but the RAM cant the "fancy" type with heatsinks, just simple ddr2/3 RAM sticks, No extras to it. It does cut close in heighth clearance, but cools exceptionally well under stress testing for 12 hours using PK-1 Nano Thermal Compound. (WHICH I HIGHLY RECCOMEND.) I have been building and overclocking systems for 7 years roughly, I mainly work as a Network Security Admin, and Pen Testing. The best is preferrably a Thermaltake V2.0 Water cooling system, with a Thor V2 case. let me know if you need any more insight.

I have corsair ram there is plenty of room. if it matched the chipset there should be no problem. If you have a large fan on your side cover it will touch the fan the unit is tall.

I own this ram it is in a AsRock extreme9 motherboard. This ram will work in Intel motherboard with an Intel x79 chip set. The X79 motherboard will have the memory controller on the cpu. The ram will work in other motherboards as well you might try going over to the Corsair web site and running their motherboard/memory configurator that way you can be sure that the ram that you buy is the one that works with your board.

My memory has heatsinks on top. I am using CORSAIR DOMINATOR GT memory. With 4 slots on each side of my CPU, I was only able to use 2 on each side. I had to squeeze this thing in between the memory I did use. You can adjust the height of the fans if you need to. Good Luck!

Yeah it will work, but I suggest getting Corsair platinum, I have the blue vengeance and it works VERY well, but the platinum would fit better with most color schemes, not to mention if you get 4x2 platinum it would be KILLER FAST for your motherboard. less ram memory the faster, but dont go any less than 8 gigs!
