Hello friend I have a heatsink like this: Corsair Vengeance Airflow Memory Cooling Fan CMYAF your device is compatible to be mounted?

the light display screws on to the top of the fan module which is sold separately, the fan module clips onto your memory. the display has wires that plug into each memory card, and they have to be a specific type of corsair memory to work.

A note about some of the newer Z87 motherboards, in particular my Asus Maximus VI Extreme - the top PCIe x16 slot was so close to the memory slots that I could not install this accessory with a large graphics card (GTX 680) mounted in that top slot. The metal fan shroud actually made contact with the circuitry on the graphics card, so I had to send it back. Even if the fans had fit properly, the orientation of the memory on that board required the connections for the ribbon cables on the memory modules be on the bottom, while the other end of the ribbon cables needed to go to the top of the AirFlo Pro memory monitor and they were too short. I think the unit was designed for both connections on the memory and AirFlo Pro be oriented at the top. The alternative would have been to mount the AirFlo Pro unit upside down. I have both Asus and EVGA Z87 motherboards and I believe the orientation of the memory modules was the same on both boards. On older boards, I don't think any of this was a problem, so you might give Corsair tech support a call before ordering to ensure the unit will work on your particular motherboard. I would have LOVED to mount this in my system, but it just didn't work out on these newer Z87 boards. To answer your specific question, if you have the space and the correct memory orientation, it's a cinch to snap the unit right on top of your ram. Hope this helps:-)

Yes. It snaps onto the Dram slot levers on the sides and over the top of the Dram chips for cooling.

Yes right on top, it clips on easily. Then just plug the fan into the motherboard (there should be a slot for power nearby) and you are all set.

Integrated on to the motherboard. Just fyi these are some amazing computers for the price! I've upgraded our whole office to them after trying out 2 for new stations.

Yes, that's what I currently have installed. It depends on the number of sticks of ram you're using and how tall the heat spreaders in the ram is. I'm using 4 sticks of g skill ripsaws x and it fits but I had to move the fan up a little bit to fit the ram underneath it.

I installed my RAM after the fact. I think the important part of that will be how tall are the heat spreaders on your RAM. Mine were short, so I had no issues. I had a little more than 1/4 but less than a 1/2 inch of clearance.

You can add RAM however two of the slots are under the keyboard, after hours of chat and phone calls with Asus I still don't know how to install the RAM.

My case came with a small bag of screws and parts, including motherboard standoffs. You just screw them in to the back of the case to the appropriate holes for your type of motherboard, and do the installation.

yes you can do that its pretty simple . all you need to find out your ram model . that you can call to customer care and asked them .then by online same memory and install it.

It depends on the case - you can mount on top or bottom, or with the fan facing up or down. It really depends on your system. I have had this unit since November and LOVE IT. It is very quiet, and made organizing my gaming computer very easy.

thank you!!!! also did you buy extra memory for it? was it hard to install it?

Hi! My husband said that since your Ram is not a dually, you shouldn't need the special bracket. But, the brackid come in the Reese towpower kit if you wind up needing it. Hope this helps!!

you cant run setup off of the disk drive. put setup.exe on the c: drive. C:/rams

Yes, you should be able to mount the unit on the attachment assembly included with the RAM Mounting Systems unit

You use the one that comes with your mobo. It comes with a dock for AMD and Intel! Really easy setup

Yes, but I think you should pay attention which direction is the exhaust/intake and if you decide to rotate it 90 degrees, check if you have enough space for the RAM sticks.

No, this will NOT fit if you have RAM boxes. We purchased one, and we had to return it... to the tune of $79.00 UPS Ground!!! Very expensive lesson! Contact the seller before buying if you're not sure. Our seller was very helpful with our return process, but we were still out the money to return the item.

Yes, I have done so on both of mine. Suggest a USB. If you add one internally the BIOS will "yell at you for having opened the chassis". Not a big deal to turn off but.... In any event, I have an internal on one and a USB on the other. Little or no difference in performance.

Yes. All you need to do is disconnect the cable module in the back of the unit. Next, remove the unit from the RAM mount and you are done!
