Hey, nice video. :) I have a couple of questions, though. I own a Casecom KM-6788 case, which is exactly the same as the NZXT M59 that you have there, except it has no window and a different front panel. I'm thinking of buying one of these coolers (noctua), and I know that it will be able to fit fine; but as I can't see from the video, will there still be room for 2 120x25mm fans on the top? You seem to be the only person on YT With that case+cooler, so I would really appreciate a reply. Thanks!

@Neoplan6o There should be enough clearance between the cooler and the top of the case for the fans. You might have trouble putting 2 fans there though if you have a cd/dvd drive in the top bay as it might cause a conflict for you.

@TechHarvest The 6788 front panel has I/O where the top 5.25" bay would be, so I should be fine. Awesome, thanks very much for your reply! :D

[TechHarvest]

@Neoplan6o Well you're in luck then. Good luck with your build!

Nice video man!!I have the noctua to!!

[TechHarvest]

@dani41396 NICE!

[SWAT2291]

Oh man, looks like it would be soo much easier with a new build to install.

[domeee11]

It took more then 5 hours for me to install the NH-D14.

-_- just got everything working

@dani41396 That's a pretty number for this CPU in my eyes, I think I will go for 4 Ghz though. Thanks for the quick answer!

[dani41396]

@LundChris Its not the best I would recomend a 4.4 :)

[LundChris]

@dani41396 Is it stable at 4.7Ghz? as I also got the 990x and X6 1090T CPU and are waiting for the noctua to arrive.

2 turns on each screw max at a time to prevent canting.

@TechHarvest Speaking of NZXT, will the Noctua fit in an NZXT Phantom? I've heard it can, but the side 200mm fan may have to be removed.
