Hey, I have a Biostar TZ77XE3 1155 motherboard with an Intel i7 2700K CPU and a CM Storm Trooper case. I currently have the CM Hyper 212 EVO CPU cooler, and I am looking to upgrade. I was suggested the Noctua NH-D15 as it is the best air cooler and I can't be bothered with water cooling. However I just want to make sure that the NH-D15 will fit on my motherboard/case. I was told it would, but I would like a second opinion if possible.

Here is a picture of my current heatsink and as you can see there isn't too much space beside the RAM. I was told the fan on the NHD15 could be moved to fit in place, but I just want to be 100% certain before I purchase it.
Thanks!
