Ghost S1 - Noctua NH-L12S - Corsair Vengeance LPX Compatibility

[shoobx]

hi everyone,

i have read a lot of posts and videos and i saw the "bend" possibility to use the 12s and make it fit the ghost s1 case.
but i also saw a post of someone doing the maths and explaining that technique was not compatible with corsair LPX and that it was needed to use VLP RAM.

So plz can someone tell me :
- if 12S is compatible with ASRock MB + Corsair LPX
- If not what do you recommend for CPU cooling ? Nh L9x65 ?

CPU is supposed to be a 9700k

thx for your help

I've got the L12s, ASRock B450 ITX, and Corsair LPX RAM.

I did not do anything to modify the L12s, and here are some photos:

nice ! iveryone tells the MB to choose is the Z390 Phantom Gaming-ITX/ac. What's your opinion ? do you know the difference with your MB ?

Mine is AMD socket AM4.
The L12s works with both AMD and Intel so I wouldn't expect any difference.
