Looking for some info from those who are currently using any of the GA-Z97X-Gaming boards. My primary question is around fans and which ones fit nicely without interfering with either the boards components or (more likely) the RAM slots.
It appears that each of the GA-Z97X-GAMING 7, GA-Z97X-GAMING 5, GA-Z97X-GAMING GT, and GA-Z97X-GAMING 3 have similar layouts and prior to purchasing I'd like to know which fans you have and which ones had no obstruction issues mounting.
The actual board I am looking at is the Gaming 5 and will be using a core i5 and NOT overclocking, so my needs are not at the extreme level. But want to know more about something that fits into the board well even if it may be an overkill. I also would be hesitant to go with liquid cooling, again I just don't see the need with an stock i5.
