i'm buying a used processor (i know, i know, not recommended and what not. im taking a risk and it can potentially not work out so good) and it doesnt come with a cooler. its an i5 2500s. anyway, i'm trying to make an office pc for my parents for as little as possible so we're reusing a bunch of stuff. i have a micro atx case, but the distance from the standoffs to the top is about 6 inches. it wont fit the 212 evo. also, im buying this ram from a friend:

it has a heatsink, so i was wondering if anyone knows of a cooler that isnt too tall, inexpensive and will fit with the ram?
heres some ideas i was looking at:

that looks good, but i think its about the size of the 212 evo so it may be too big

would my ram fit under?
http://pcpartpicker.com/part/cooler-master-cpu-cooler-rr910htx3g1
is that any good?
also, if this is relevant, i have a cooler on my computer (core 2 quad, socket 775) that would be perfect for their case (tower cone to the side panel vent). is it possible to use my cooler and backplate on a socket 1155 mobo?
