I have the following build:

Asus M5A99X EVO ATX AM3+ Motherboard

AMD FX-6300 3.5GHz 6-Core Processor

Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler

G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1866 Memory

I am interested in adding another 8 gb of Ram, but the extra height of the X Series Ram means 1 of my Ram Slots is unavailable for it due to inadequate clearance from the CPU Cooler. Is there Ram that you can recommend with the same Latency, Speed etc. as the G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1866 Memory, (PC3 14900) Timing 8-9-9-24 Cas Latency 8 that does not have the extra height of the X Series??.

Thanks

Are you running into the cooler or just the fan? The fan you can actually slide up a bit without losing any real functionality, if there's room to do so.
