Hi, y'all!

I'm looking to build a Dan A4 system, planned for when Ryzen 3 hits the market. Thing is, I'm contemplating using the Cryorig C7 cu (with a noctua fan, mind you), but will there be issues since the heatpipes then will go vertically? Is there a way to flip the cooler eventually?

Are there other alternatives? Can, say the Noctua NH-L9A be flipped 90 degrees so the fins are vertical with the ram?

Thank you!

Check out this post, @Thehack was working on an AMD bracket for the C7 in order to turn it 90 degrees. Looks like he is not going to persue it but he does have 3 of the brackets available.
