...and you thought the UP12 was big.

Yep that is a 140mm fan in the middle.

Oh wow.

Who needs water cooling?

Will it fit in with a full bank of memory and large video card I wonder?

Its supposed to, or so they say.

The NH-D14's asymmetrical design gives more clearance towards the RAM slots and thus ensures good compatibility despite of the cooler's size.
Hanging out at the bottom of the fin-stacks, the NF-P14 fan doesn't only contribute to the NH-D14's superb CPU cooling capabilities but also provides massive airflow over surrounding motherboard components and heatsinks.

I'm suprised they did not stick a third fan on it. Or will that be an optional extra.
