hey guys thanks for the quick response but on that note would the CPU cooler reduce the space for the ram if im getting the AMD AM3+ FX-6300 Six Core 3.5GHz 6MB Cache 95W Black Edition CPU from computer alliance

You have to check if the cooler (whichever one that you choose) needs low profile ram. Most of them don't

The stock cooler will leave you room for your ram so don't worry.

That motherboard has a very poor thermal design , you will need better cooling.

sr-71 blackbird where did u find this out I am interested about it and thanks to everyone for helping me out

Stock coolers in general don't work very well. An aftermarket cooler would do you well. A cheap cooler like this one would make all the difference in temperature. Could you give link to your case? It would be beneficial to know the measurements of your case if you wanted an aftermarket cooler.

The memory will fit fine with that motherboard. Get a CPU cooler that can clear 38mm and you should not have a problem at all.

There are many good coolers that can clear this RAM height and do a great job keeping the CPU cold.
