Not sure any of your assumptions is true.


- You'd want 2 fans simply for lower temps or lower noise (slower fans), what CPU you have is irrelevant

- Not everybody needs the massive feature set of a high end motherboard. I bought B650E as it's got plenty for my needs (and I defnitiely didn't want a tiny chipset  fan like most of the high end boards have now).

- You can get low profile high performance RAM easily, especially if you don't need RGB - GSkill Flare for a start.


My rig fits happily with NH-D12L and two fans:
