I have a TRX40 Taichi, the Noctua has a way to move the heatsink a couple of millimeters, also the fans can be moved a bit.

On this board (the Taichi), the card will be quite close, and depending on the back-plate of the card it could touch the noctua sink.

I would try to avoid that, but I think it will fit.]]> Sun, 15 Mar 2020 01:48:26 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13533&PID=73577&title=noctua-for-asrock-trx40#73577 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13533&PID=72306&title=noctua-for-asrock-trx40#72306 Author: Wiki

Anyone with Asrock TRX40 Creator and Noctua NH-U14S TR4?

Noctua says its product is compatible with TRX40 creator, however, seeing photos, it is the motherboard that has less space for the CPU heatsink (between the VRM heatsink and the first PCI-e slot on the motherboard). It has approximately a space the size of a DDR4 slot ( 133mm) or maybe a little more, so assuming that the width of the NH-U14S TR4 / SP3 is 140mm, or it does not fit or has very little margin.

my questions would be:
* Can the heatsink be installed on the Asrock TRX40 Creator motherboard having the first PCI-e slot on the motherboard available for use with a GPU?
* Is there enough space? I'm worried about problems due to lack of space. Maybe a short circuit for example with the graphics card because they are too close]]> Tue, 28 Jan 2020 02:12:45 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13533&PID=72306&title=noctua-for-asrock-trx40#72306
