new build, with Mastercase MC500M , asus rog maximus hero x wifi ac board, i5-8600K and trident z rgb memory. Looking for a good cpu air cooler that won't cause ram clearance issues with this set up.Would like to try overclocking.

Your RAM is what determines clearance, not the board, unless it's a tiny ITX board. Noctua NH-D15 would be my recommendation, has cutouts in the fins for RAM, really quiet and effective, easy to mount, all around great cooler as long as you have at least 165mm of clearance or so for coolers in your case.
