How the heck do I get Arctic Freezer 50 TR to fit?

[RPGBadger]

I can't seem to get the Arctic Freezer 50 TR to fit on the motherboard no matter what type of RAM I am using. Can anyone help me please?

First you need to tell us which computer case you are using, and which motherboard you are using. You may of found a part collision bug. Lots of those exist in this game. But if you tell us what you are trying to use together I'll look into it for you.

I am using the Strix TRX40-E in a Gamer Storm Genome ROG Certified case

are you sure you have close again the socket?
because I have try with G.skill royal and no problem

I would love to see a pic of that, because I went in freebuild, and indeed as OP, I seem to be unable to fit that CPU air cooler with any RAM at all, while the CPU cooler alone is able to fit.
Combo of the Gamer Storm Genome ROG Certified case + Strix TRX40-E + a few RAM I tried, either the one you suggests, and some lower profiles ones as well.

Now OP, maybe try an other cooler, because you have 110CFM AIO that would perfectly fit the case (so better AIO in just the CPU cooler) and if you need an Arctic part for career purpose, then fit some Arctic case fans.

I know it's not what you want to read, and yet, indeed it seems that combo is impossible, and yet, neither the CPU cooler nor the RAM turns red (collision) as long as it's not one of the farther external RAM solts. The CPU cooler stays orange and will simply not fit with more "central" positioned RAM.

when you try to install the arctic, what is shown in red?
because on the socket you rotate the bottomfirst then lift the second part and you can install the cpu, are you sure having close the first part you lift?

As I can install it ALONE (without RAM), ofc I have closed both parts, if not I would be unable to install it at all.
Here is my pics from freebuild, same mobo as OP, with same case, with Adata 4600Mhz RAM (higher profile), the whole right RAM is highlighted in red.

And now with the G.skill royal ones, only the lower right corner is highlighted in red, and yet, it prevents from installing the cooler

correction G.skill royal don't work
but the
Adata Xpg gammix d10
Adata premier series
Adata XPG Flame
DFL Motiv8or
G.Skill Fortis
Gigabyte Memory
Shean Titan XL
Team Group T-Force
all work without any problem because they are low profile memory

Indeed, with lower profile ones it works.

Yet, the collision shown with the G.skill royal ones is a very very weird "collision" as it highligths probably one of the lower part of the RAM, While with higher profile, it highlights all the farther right RAM.

Funny other fact, with only 2 RAM (the same G.skill royal) close to the CPU, none are highlighted in red (aka collision) and yet we are unable to fit the cooler, as per this pic

they are in red if you look higher just like of your pic it's hidding from the visual of the cooler
other indice, the cooler is orange and not in green
