Hi people, i want to change my i5-3570k stock cooler in order to overclock a bit (around 4.2Ghz i'm hoping) but i have no space due to mini-atx & high profile corsair vengeance ram...check out:

Was wondering what's the solution for me, i don't think the evo212 fits in there, or maybe shadow rock slim...i don't know, ram from mobo is around 5cm high! Any ideas?

thing was did not have to remove the board to install a back mounting plate uses the stock style push pin like the stock coolers ??

Unmatched Compatibility
Zero RAM Interference

Focusing on providing the widest range of compatibility, the H5 utilizes an asymmetric slanted heatpipe layout to move the heatsink away from the RAM zone. Also, fitted with a 13mm thin XT140 the CRYORIG H5 offers optimal compatibility for RAM with tall heat spreaders on both Intel and AMD platforms.


Or this one.


Best budget cooler on the market.

Actually looks like very good idea! Does it exist in stronger-better versions?

It is actually a very simple solution and requires as much effort as any other cpu heatsink on the market. Also it is a closed looped solution that from my personal experience (so far almost 5 years) did not require any sort of maintenance

I think it looks like the best solution, i don't mind taking out the mb but it looks like it will fit there something like that. Have to check out dimensions!

...it is a bit smaller then evo212 so it fits according to my measurements
