Chassis max cooler height: 170mm
Noctua dh-15 height: 165mm

That being said i cant raise the dual fans like the product page says anymore to make room for ram, which is currently sitting in slot 2 and 4 on a asus tuf sabertooth R2.0 thus leading me to the problem of what ram can i actually fit under the noctua? if not could i at least fit two sticks side by side to sit under the heat fin cut out, but behind the fan?

Ram clearence for the NH-15 under the fan for two ram slots is 32mm, the cut out is 64mm enough to fit 2 sticks of ram side by side if thats possible..

as you see it looks like you can fit two sticks under the heat fins and behind the fan, but would they work in slots 1 and 2
Edit: picture wont show up for me so skip to 5:59 in the video and pause if the jpg wont show for you.

Okay, but would that be worse or better? would this also be implying i should keep them where they are at?
