The gap between the RAM and the heatsink is already minimal and will become even tighter after reinstalling the module. There’s no other place to fit the AIO pump cables, and I’m worried they might overheat. Updated April 24, 2021 by lerodemmy.

The cable is secure and can be routed safely there. It won't melt.

If you have alternative suggestions for cable placement, feel free to share. Just remember there will be another RAM stick inside.

I frequently connect cables inside there. It creates excellent sound.

Looks awful. Nowhere to put it. So dejected.

The cable isn't sufficiently long when routed from the bottom.

He’d still face the same issue, it would shift from the extra VRM heatsink to the M.2 heatsink and then get blocked by the GPU.

Don't feel bad my friend. You aren't the only one. I forget that is one complaint about this cooler - that cable is quite rigid but also seemingly fragile and easy to scratch/damage. Hhere's mine

It's really frustrating to see that board members haven't addressed this issue by 2021.
