So I'm building a skylake system and I want to put this ram in it http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231929&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-PC&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-PC-_-pla-_-Desktop+Memory-_-N82E16820231929&gclid=Cj0KEQiAj8uyBRDawI3XhYqOy4gBEiQAl8BJbc-k8a51u4ywXl1E2mpRK3rN4lOrYAxr0p3syWn5b44aAltO8P8HAQ&gclsrc=aw.ds
Of course the problem is that its 44mm tall! Whats the best cpu air cooler that I can get that will allow me to install this ram? If there are a couple of options I am open to suggestions, however I am really not interested in a liquid cooler.

Noctua NH-D15 is one of the best if not the best air cooler, it can fit tall ram
(in this review its fitting over 54mm ram http://www.tweaktown.com/reviews/6313/noctua-nh-d15-cpu-cooler-review/index5.html)

Cryorig H7 is a much cheaper alternative (best heat sink for its price but not as good oas the D15 obviously) its angled so it starts after the dimm location, in theory you can use any ram with it.


(ps ram heat spreaders do virtually nothing)
