Compatibility of DDR5 block with Kingston Fury RAM modules

[ChickenMacNugget]

Hi all,

Planning out my first custom loop at the moment and it's essentially all Alphacool parts so far.

I was wondering if anyone had experience with the Alphacool Core DDR5-RAM Modules (Article no.: 17631). I am considering getting some Kingston Fury DDR5 RAM kits and want to see if I can get confirmation that they are compatible.

The Kingston modules show a height of 34.9mm and length of 133.35mm, I'm mostly concerned about the height clearance and placement of any particularly high profile objects on the PCB.


It seems the Alphacool modules would be fine, as they have a decent height clearance from the connectors (internal dimension is only 26mm height).



I am mostly concerned about the internal thickness of 4.1mm for the AC block, and am not sure what parts might cause issues on the ram modules.


Any help is much appreciated!

The Fury Beast series includes several completely different RAM modules with different heatsinks and PCB layouts. Which exact model do you mean?
As a general rule, however, you can say that if they have lighting, our coolers will not fit. If they do not have lighting, then the coolers will fit.

Ah I was not aware different modules had different PCB layouts! Sorry about that.

I'm interested in the 64gb 6000mhz kits. I believe the CL30 kit, in either black or white.

I'm also considering the G-Skill Flare X5 64gb 6000mhz CL30 kits

The cooler fits both RAM kits. It does not matter which one you choose.
However, the Kingston RAM has better timings.
