On the site for the S401 it lists the cooler clearance as about 52mm, though the supposed total height for the Big Shuriken 2 is 58mm. Is the site metric overly safe? Did you need to do anything to get the cooler to fit.


I know OC is pretty much out the window but I'd like to run with a 3800X or 9900K and am trying to do the best I can in regards to the color as I'm seeing some people mention that the Noctua NH-9i that I was initially looking at (seems like the NH-9a is slightly better if I do go Ryzen) struggles to even cool the 3700.


If a cooler closer to 60mm does truly fit then that opens up some more options.
