That's right where they lose me, because the fan can only be adjusted up or down a very minimal amount thanks to the way it attaches to the tower.

The D15 with stock fan placement clears, I believe, 32mm for RAM and 64mm without the fan. The build I just did the guy ordered G.Skill V RAM which is like 42mm or something and he bought my Arc Midi R2 which I had on hand and all I had to do was just raise the fan hanging over the RAM slots by the difference and it fit like a charm. Phanteks uses the same type of design but their cooler is a bit taller stock, however the Pro M case is wider than the Arc Midi R2. So there shouldn't be any issues with just raising the fan.
