Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

I brought HP OMEN 25L Gaming PC - AMD Ryzen 7, RTX 3070, 1 TB HDD & 256 GB SSD from Currys in the UK and want to add Noctua NH-U12A heat sink to keep my cpu cool but I am not 100% sure it can fit in this is information I got from Speccy: CPU
AMD K19 x16 (i deleted extras so it would not take much space)
RAM
16.0GB Dual-Channel Unknown @ 1596MHz (22-22-22-52)
Motherboard
HP 8876 (AM4)

Also will get 2 extra of the same RAM chipset, thank you for your time if you can help me please. if another heatsink is better to put in pls give me name so I can look it up.

@Night_Fowl89 -- the web-site: https://noctua.at/en/nh-u12a

 

gives the physical dimensions of it, including "width" and "height" and its non-square shape, to avoid overlapping any PCI or RAM sockets.

 

What are the dimensions of your current heat-sink-and-fan?
