Need help, CPU cooler that doesn't block RAM socket

Hardware Hub Cooling
1

I'm currently using the Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO but i can't use ram with a heat sink due to it hover to close to the socket.

Its fine with the ballistix sport but i want to upgrade the amount of memory in my system and while not completely necessary the heat sink would be a nice precaution and feature to have with it.

any suggestions and/or help would be great!

I'd recommend all closed loop liquid cooling. From Corsair to Enermax. They are not that expensive no more, take little to no space, easy to install, and better than most conventional coolers.

if you have in push, why not try pull. if none of that works. go with a AIO cooler.

The 212 evo can be rotated 90 degrees or 180 degrees ... should fit then
