I purchased the ASUS Maximus IV Hero, and I purchased 2x8GB Corsair Dominator Platinum RAM. I'm deciding on which CPU cooler to go with, and it's down to the NZXT Havik 120 or 140. Do I have enough clearance between the NZXT Havik 140 and the RAM I purchased?

You should be fine either way, it might block the first slot, but you can plug in your memory on slots 2 and 4 instead of 1 and 3 and you will be fine.

Thank you. I was aware I could just move over slots, but I wasn't sure how much room it would take up. It's my first build, and I've been researching everything as thorough as I can, and that was always the remaining question.
