Corsair vengeance heat syncs really necessary?
After aquiring a cooler master hyper 212 plus, I found that even it was too big to fit along with corsair vengeance high profile ram. This leads me to have to mount it so that the fan, which is trying to suck in air is facing the exhaust fan at the back rather than the intake fans at the front. If I removed the heatsync of 1 ram dimm there should be room to have it facing the intake fans, much more ideal, but will this a) void the warrantee and b) be bad for the ram (cause it to overheat). I know the heatsyncs on vengeance ram are rather excessive if you aren't overclock ing, but I just wanted to check. Also, I have 4 dimms, so I can't move them over or anything, incase someone was going to suggest that. I could just remove 2, the pair with the dimm closest to the cooler, but I would rather keep all 4 in use.
Thanks :)
