Installed CLC 240 with Ryzen Threadripper/ASUS ROG Zenith Alpha using all RAM slots.  Basically, the USB cable doesn't fit, the little round "hump" at the elbow of the cable makes it too big...suggestions?

    Welcome to the EVGA Forums & Congrats on your First Thread
     
     
    Can you rotate the Cooler so it is available to use ?
     
    See this FAQ:  Can I disconnect the USB Cable to a CLC Cooler after changing settings?
    (excerpt)
    The RGB LED or fan speed settings for the CLC cooler can be changed in Flow Control and saved to the firmware of the CLC itself. Once you set the settings, you can then disconnect the USB cable if you choose without losing those settings. However, there are a few caveats:
    Only static settings are able to be saved to the firmware of the CLC cooler and remain functional. Any dynamic settings, such as anything that is tied to temperature, you will need the USB cable connected. For example, changing the LED color by CPU temperature or setting a fan curve based on temperature will require the USB cable to be connected. If you have the LEDs synced with a EVGA graphics card then you do have to have the USB cable connected for the sync to work as well.

    Hi Acebris and welcome to the EVGA forums!
     
    looking at this motherboard, I think the best orientation is to have the mini-USB connector facing the graphics card.
