haven't tried that cooler but it seems low profile just like the stock cooler.but it will fit.
Take a look for yourself and measure the coolers size with a tape to see that it does not obstruct the way of anything .Its about 1 inch larger in lenght and width.So place the tape on top of the stock cooler and measure 0.5inches to both sides and if it does not obstruct anything you are good to go
Here are the sizes.

Thanks for the reply. The zalman 8900 quiet does fit the msi gaming ac z97 mini itx board. You have to rotate the cooler because the heat pipes hit the ram (even low profile). Rotated this way also does not allow optimum cooling acording to the instructions. The heat sink also touches my graphics card (msi twin frozr r9 290) and does not allow it to sit fully straight in pci slot. Will probably go for a aio water solution.
